Can't decide whether to mini tub my 69 firebird project or not. Car is in primer again after the first round of blocking. I will be installing DSE sub frame connectors soon and a DSE roll bar. Going for a Trans Am series look. Might go the Ride Tech route for front and rear suspension with a stock sub frame. How wide of tire can the stock wheel tubs handle?

10" is as wide as you can go stock tub

I am running a 275/30/18 on a 10" rear rim. Stock sheet metal.
