Hello everyone,

I am a new member to the club and have also just purchased my first Hot Rod on tuesday. The car is a 31 Ford 5 window coupe. The car has a stock 73 ford mustang 9" rear. The wheels on the car have a 3.75 backspacing. With this combination in place, the tires protrude out approx. 5" outside of the rear fenders. There is approx. 4-5 inches of space between the inside of the tire and the inner fender well. What I want to do is move the rear wheels in as much as possible. With this in mind, what would be the best thing to do? Should I have the axle narrowed or find a wheel with a backspacing that would bring the wheel in where I want it.

Thanks.

Bart
