No, not the front to back size, it's the width, where the tire sits (the actual wheel well, not arch). Because of the double wall, the lip on the underside of the fender is huge. It's more than an 1" wide. Because of the way the inner panel is welded, you would be lucky to roll the fender about a 1/2". With the 8.5" wide slots and the 3.75" back spacing, they just sit too far out and the tire would rub.
At some point I want to mini tub it and run 15x10 but funds are not there to allow me to narrow the rear end at this point.
