Guess I was mistaken about the mention of stock in notch.

Thanks for clearing that up.

Sorry bout the bad grammar..

I do plan on notching the frame.. Be nice to get 315+ back there

Swapping to 7/16 bolts for body mounts and brake line stuff figured I'd snap couple pics on her feet..
275/40/17 on 17x9 5" BS
Got more then 1/2" clearance on inside. 315 on a 10" could possibly work. Doubt OEM Fender would work those..

That's cool, I'd rather run inner fender wells. Guess I could do without them if just had to have a 315. I'd imagine the handling is drastically improved with the 275s or the 195s or 215s
