weird problem. 15x10 fitment

ok so i just got my 15x10 w/ 5.5 back spacing. mounted my 28x12.50-15 et streets. bolted them up and minus having to clearance the calipers i have 1-2inches of clearance from the inner fender well. and looks like the outer fender is going to make contact with the tire.

i was under the impression that i would have to remove metal off the inner fender not have to do something about the outer fender... tomorrow i will get pics when i lower the car down on the ground and see what your opinions are on clearancing the outer fender, maybe just rolling the frender lip?

Your Strange 12 bolt may be the width of a forth gen diff.

hmm good point. but i believe it is the same length as stock because i cant run 4th gen rims without spacers.

I'd think that 12.5 wide tire on top of a 2" taller than stock OD would be need a inner fender roll for sure. I've never dealt wtih wider than a 9.5 rim or 275 tire so Stephen and the rest of the crue woudl have to cofirm / negate the idea.
