Don't know how you get 8" Cragars under a dart. My 6" and 225 70 tires are really close, cannot get my finger between tire and 1/4. Cut the lip back to increase a little when they were repaired before paint.

Guess with the right offset or shortened rear end you could get more under it.

It's all in the backspace, I don't know how they're getting 17's by anything under the early A's!!! I measured my 6" deep dish rims and they had room on both sides for another inch or 2 of width, and about an inch of clearance on my early Cuda! I have 3 different backspacing a to play with to check the backspacing!!!
