Big tires?
 
Anyone running M/T Sportsmen SR 31x18r15?
Have an opportunity for a pair with 15x15 rims with 3.5" back spacing...

Is your car backhalved? That's the only way that wheel and tire would ever have a chance of fitting

Takes a lot of energy to rotate tire that tall. Just sayin

Car is not tubbed, nor will it be. I unlike all you purists love the look of tires outside the fenderwell. Power should not be an issue, my other thread addresses that quite well. just wondering if anyone has had luck with 15x15 rims.

A lot outside the fender well, like 5 or 6 inches.

More like 8" plus tire bulge. It's a fitment catastrophe

I'd be more concerned with the 31" tall tire. Sawzall or a donk style lift in the rear only LOL.

Just replace the rear springs with bricks, problem solved
