I purchased 18x9 & 18x10 SVE series 3 wheels for my 91 LX. The rear wheels are even with the fenders the shop that's doing all the work on my car and test fitting the wheels called today and told me they don't think the rear wheels are going to work. I see a lot of people running 18x10" wheels... If I mount tires I can't return the wheels so I need a little help here.

Suspension mods- MM grip in a box with coil overs front and rear.

Thanks for the help

Rear Wheel specs:

Size: 18x10
Offset: +20mm
Backspacing: 6.28
Lip Size: 2.50"
Weight: 26.95lbs
Lug Pattern: 5x114.3

Yup roll the fenders. I have a 285/35/18 on a 18x10 with springs tho. Not coilovers. It only rubs when I pull into a driveway or if I have people in the back seat which is pretty much never

They're hankook tires. I think the brand matters. Some other brands with the size I have will be a little more meaty


Only pic I could find

I have the fox axels also... Do your wheels come all the way out to the fenders like mine? Do you have some side pics? I'm pretty much searching for new wheels, even tho I'd really like to keep these, it's so hard to find wheels!!

I forget the specs. I'm sure your wheels will fit. Just do a simple google search on your specs on a foxbody. I also have fox length

I've been googling, I think I'll just order up some 285/35/18s and just throw them on. Thanks for the help guys! Btw what size tire are you running up front?
