I wonder if a 12" wide rim with the 7.5 will fit? going back to stock springs on mine raised the rear wheelwell a few inches above the tire,so it "could" sick out the fender lip a little with no problems.

I have 255/70 15 at the rear and 215/75 15 at the front. The rear sits lower than the front. I think I go with 31x10,5 if they fit on the OEM Steelies.... https://www.facebook.com/UncleHarrysMusclecargarage
