Would it be wise to get spacers with an 18X10.5 AFS replica rim with BFGs. I had the car out and I did not have a problem but would it be wise to get spacers. The car will be lowered next month with H&R Race springs as well.

I would wait till you get them mounted and check clearance. You can always install spacers later.

The tires are on the car now and I dont see any problem with the bolt. I would only figure a problem if the tire drops down about 2 inches.

What size tires are we talking about? 295s or ???

Have you modified the stock IRS bolt heads at all?

If you jack the rear of the car up and let the wheels hang, will they spin freely or are the inner sidewall of the tires wedged against the IRS bolt heads? If they are, then seriously consider taking a little of the tops of the IRS bolt heads.
