Thanks Max,

I see your wheels are flush with the outside of the fender. You don't have slicing/rubbing of your tires with the outer fender? Did you roll your fenders?

I also didn't show or mention this but I jacked up the lower A arm of the suspension until the car raised off fthe jack stand to put a load on it and try and represent normal ride height; at least for the rear.

Again, it isn't even lowered yet.

Looks like I just need to trust that I can make the wheels work and get the tires mounted. Cut the springs to lower it, then start playing with spacers......
