I dont know much about foxes but I believe you cant fit a 315 under there without rubbing real bad. Or a mini tub.

My dad has the nitto drag radials 315's on his notch. We had to roll his fenders, and get diff a-arms upfront due to the larger SSP ones that came on it.

It can be done, but it's not easy. Depending on how low your car's ride height is, you'll most likely end up massaging the inner wheel well, removing the quad shocks, rolling the lip of the quarter panel, and you'll need the right wheel with the right backspacing/offset.

also i have a very mild spacer in the rear with a lil massage to the inner fenders and removal of the quad shock!!

also you will need and want to put aftermarket upper/lower control arms with nice stiff bushings to keep the rear end from shifting side to side at all...
