Got a buddy wanting to run 15x8's all the way around on his fox. I know 5.5" BS is good on the rear but will that work in the front also? I've read a few places that a 4" BS is best in front? He wants to make sure he is good lock to lock and also that they won't rub the struts. I think he was wanting to run 215/65/15 on the front. What BS are the factory 15x7's?

Seriously???? Is this one of those stupid newb questions no one feels like answering or does nobody know the answer? Thought people would be all over answering this.
I think stock 7 inch wheels had around 4.5 inches of backspace.
My old 86 GT had 225/60/15's on stock wheels and seemed to have room for more.
Steering rack limiters are pretty cheap and can stop you from hitting the lower A arms.

People run 17x8's..... 15x8's should be cake.
