Default Anyone got a 10" wheel on their Fox?

I assume that it requires a little love tap with a large sledge hammer. But I saw one the other day with a chrome 10" bullet on the back. Looked mean as hell.

So, lets see what ya got, and how hard was it to make it fit?

275 should fit no problem on 10" wide rim in the rear

might rub when the axle moves around a bit

I'm running 15X10 weld draglites in rear with a 6.5" back spacing and 28/10.50/15 ET Drags with some massaging of the wheel well and rolled fender lips.Thewholetire fits inside the fender. What helps is i have granetelli adjustable lower control arms so i can raise or lowerthe rear of my car as i need to.
I needed to do this because i welded brackets to lower the control arms at the axle for better bite.

I have the adjustable uppers and lowers, I just don't want to order wheels and tires and have them be way off. Too bad you're in MI. Maybe I'll find someone near by that will let me stick one under the car and see how close I am.

Thanks for the info guys!

If you go to a reputable tire store they will trial fit whatever wheel you need to make a sale.(provided it's in stock)
