Wheel and tire size question.

That's when the vehicle is sitting still. It doesn't take into account all the movement hitting bumps and potholes and tight turns.. There's always the possibility of having to widen the fender and quarter panel openings which would probably cost more than just the new wheels and tires.. I could do that, but I'm not doing body work anymore.. 


It really seemed like there would be plenty of room.  I am just a little concerned about the offset pushing the wheel out more.

The wheels come with tires that don't look like they have a lot of tread on them.  I can always put slightly smaller tires on the wheels if there is any issue with rubbing at all.

BTW I have seen guys roll a wheel well fender out with a baseball bat just to get a quarter or half-inch more clearance.  Hopefully I won't have to try anything like that.
