I put a 28x10.5x15 Hoosier Quick Time Pro under a 95 without removing quad shocks. That was with a stock V6 7-8" rim also.

11in I think is by far the biggest you can go with out mini tubs or more and even that you still have to bump out inner well.

why go with a lower gear......

i'm swapping my 3.73's for 3.55's....

in answer to your question there is no way to put a 12.5 tire under that car without mini tubs......

thanks reggie.I talked to a guy @ the track this weekend and he has a set for 100 bucks so i was just checking.thats really what i need to do is to take the 4-10 gears out and put 355- 373.w/axels and good internals.

stroked95.so you used a standard v-6 rim and offset worked with 28x10.5.if thats what i will do.just to finish out this season I hate to start going into big project at this time of year.im looking for best possible traction and enough tire to help my motor live.Im changing engine combo from sc 302 to a 408 (carb) and i think 4-10 would be closer for that motor.

Just put set of 28x10.50s on it will hold all the power you have, we have guys running 570s on 10in tire with big blocks.
