Do anybody have some pics of 29.5 slicks on a fox? Just wanting to see how you trimmed your fender.
Thanks!

I believe to get that tire in there it has to be mini tubbed (not a 100% sure) but i think the most tire you can get in a stock wheel well with rolling the fender lip and contouring the well is a 28x10.5

Not slicks, but the 390/45r15 drag radials I have on my big block car are 29.5" in diameter. I trimmed back the rear portion of the wheel well. There is a lot less complicated metal work on the back. I also am using side skirts so I didn't want to cut them up. Slicks will grow more than a radial, so you might have to cut the front to.

It now has a new setup in it so we don't really know yet. We are converting it to a radial car and plan on it being a 4.70's to 4.80 car
