I am pretty sure you cant fit a 10.5 inch rim on a fox, I think the max is 9inch,

you can get the rear end shortened.


some people use wheel spacers. fox cars just dont have the room to fit a 10.5 rim

everything fits on my car, i have 17x9.5s with 255/40s on them. didnt remove quad shocks or anything, and it looks as though i have about an inch of clearance btw them and the quad shocks.

i had m/t radials and they cleared the quad shocks is the only things that hit the rims. the rims have a 27 offset i dont know how much that matters. i have the new rear out off the car so i dont know if spacers will put the wheels outside the wheel well. how do i flip the wheel upside down? thanks for the help guys!
