OlderThanMe Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 I have seen a Z that was running coilovers and 5.5" of backspacing. They had to run some REALLY narrow tires in comparison to not rub. Or just get some 10mm shims and test it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMortensen Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Flares? I don't think it's going to work without flares... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnc Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 I ran 16 x10s with 5.5" of backspace and 275/45-16 tires. With a 6" ride height and 3" of bump travel I needed to cut the wheel wells and flare the car. Also needed to run 2.25" OD coil overs and a 1/8" spacer on the rear with a 3/4" spacer on the front.
