side clearance on tires
I just put 26x8.5 slicks on my falcon height wise is fine but i only have about 1\4 inch or so side clearance..its not the fender lip but on falcons the body tucks inward above the lip toward the tire..little worried about any side to side movement or body roll

1/4" is a little tight. I know exactly the spot your talkin about too.It is radiused though, so it wouldn't cut the tire,just rub it.I like to have a minimum of an inch of clearance for tires if possible. Just my .02

May not rub going in a straight line, in the road course...... That may be different.
