Here's some pics.

No clearance at all. Less than an inch.

I have Eibach springs and 1 1/4" spacers. Thinking of going back to stock. Or even a coil over. I need to raise it either way with a stiff spring so it doesn't tear my tires up.

What should I go with?

I need to lift it. It will still hit the rolled fenders.

Was also thinking 1" spacers instead of 1 1/4" and roll the fenders. But rolling the fenders is a whole lot of trouble without a roller and I don't want to do all that if it might still hit the fender.

I might have to go all of the above.

1" spacers
roll fenders
stock springs
stiffer shock

275 on 18x10. It's wider than the 275's I had on my 17x9's.

Took out the 1 1/4" spacers and rolled the fenders abit myself. Took it for a good rip around town and minimal to no issues. This is how it looks:

Not too bad still. I will still be checking and getting poly urethane iso's for the rear though.

3/4 would be perfect but I didn't know if they made them a hub centric adapter that thin.

275's arent quite wide enough for a 10" wheel, are they? I like how the height of the wheel and tire fill the well up though, very nice.

Most D/R's will say a 10" is optimum for a 275 . I know my M&H D/R said 10-11"
