I want to fit some Deep dish 18x10 Fr-500's on my project alo 18x9 up front.

1. Will I have any issues up front with my tubular K-member

2. When I move over to five lug is there anything different I need than the typical 5 lug swap?

3. Whats the biggest tire on this rim without tubbing. I know someone posted some 315's???? on the back of their fox before.

4. What brand and series street drag tires

Thanks in advance

if you want those 18x10s to fit the rear you'r gonna have to go with the ranger axles, so you won't be running discs in back. Or i've heard that if you want discs baer's brake kit won't make the rear tires stick out as far. other wise you'll need a 45mm+ offset wheel to fit the rear with your regualr, lincoln or sn-95 rear disc brake s3tup.

for the fronts i'd try and make an 18x8 work.
