8's on the front with a 4" BS are typical on a 15" wheel. You have to grind the control arm and its sit close to the tie-rod end. 10" wide wheel sit just outside the fender and doesn't look great imo.
I see. What about with tubular control arms? Do they offer up any additional clearance?

As far as the outside of the wheels, I've entertained the idea of cutting the fenders/bedsides and adding flares to accommodate the fitment if need be. I know it seems stubborn, but I will not be happy with the build unless I have 325's on all four corners lol. One way or another, I'll make it happen.
