While Christine is a Gen I with 15 inch wheels and 5 lugs - the issue is
still very similar. I run 31x10.5x15 Kumho's on backspaced 15 inch rims
WITH a inch body lift. Wheel wells are the same on Gen I and II. The
only rubbing I had was on the frame at full lock. I almost went to 33's
- which would have been a grave mistake without further mods - lol
wouldn't have worked!
You can get em to work - offset rims will help however. Prolly will rub
at lock, without a lift - you might need to trim fenders.
