Dropping the body back on my chassis for the last mock up work before it goes to the body shop and its time to get my tires and wheels figured out. I want to run 18"-19" tires and wheels but if there is a better answer I would like to hear what you have. I want to keep everything inside the fenders as well. I got a measuring tool from Ingenuity and it looks like I can get away with 5.75 backset fairly easily and 13 inch wide tire tread without hitting anything. What have those of you running similar combinations found that worked for you? What did you find was an optimal tire height?
