Uhm, hate to tell you this but those rims with 315's will fit under the stock wheel wheels with no modifications. The rims just need spacers. I believe 1 1/4" should do it.

Ryan,

To a point they will fit. Before I did any cutting I stuffed the 315's in as far as I could and to lower the car any decent amount, you have to either do the BFH mod or cut the wells out.

Take a look at these pics http://www.73-ls1.com/rims.html

See the difference in the gap I have from rim lip to fender well and yours. From your pic (Might be the angle) looks like you will have 3-4 inches clearence even after your tire is on the car. In my pics (link above) There is only about 1 1/2 inches of clearence before you'll get tire rub sitting on the inside of the fender lip. Your going to have a hard time lowering the car.

Plus at one point my car will probably get a nice size draglite with a slick under it.
