Prostreet on a budget ?
A good friend has a 84 swb and just lowered it 3 inches in front with coils and 5 inches in the back with a flip kit. My ? is how wide of tire can he put in the rear without rubbing the wheelwell or outer fender? He wants to run as wide as he can in back. If he put wider fenderwells in the back but did'nt narrow the frame or the rear end how wide then? Please post pics if you have any.
Thanks

All he has to do is move the leaf springs in-board the frame rails. After that he can run just about any size tire out there and won't have to narrow the frame. Here's my setup:
