You guys with the big tires up front. What is the outside tire to outside tire distance on them? I'm wondering if I'll need flares.

275-60-15 on rear for sure .... fronts now i have 215-65-15...... but i will change to 14 inch on front in near future .... it will look better with a tall skinny tire ... not sure yet on 14 inch size for front yet... but fronts should always be equal or SLIGHTLY lower in height then rears ....

I'm trying to see if I can't get out to 72" without fouling the fenders. I'm told the Kit Car width was 72".

Hope this helps. As close as I can guess with wifey holding the other end of the tape(she had it right on the money) my set up is 72 maybe at most 72 1/2". The tires are 255/60/15. The wheels are 8" with 4.5" back spacing.
