Rear tire clearance
I'm building a 66 SWB for my son. The first of this series for me. I have a pair of 7x15 slotted mags for the front and a pair of 8-1/2x15 w/ 3" backset for the rear. The 8-1/2" rear wheels don't leave any tire clearance on the outside. Is it common practice to trim 1/2"-3/4" off the 1-1/2" wide wheel well flange or are there other solutions? This is a low bucks project so I don't plan to tub the truck and buy new wheels.
