What's the widest rear wheel and tire I can do on the foxbody. If I do 17 x 10.5 would I have to roll the fenders? Also what size tire can I do?

If I do 17 x 9 what's the fattest tire I can put on the rear?

from what i hear, 10.5" are pushing it. it definitely can be done, but you'll more than likely have to massage the wheel well with a bfh. i have 17x10's with 275/40's on the back of my car and all i had to do was remove the quad shocks. i rolled the quarters too, although i didn't have to. i'm no where near them, was more of a peace of mind thing. with the wheel/tire combo i'm running, i have about half an inch of clearance between the inside of the tire and the inner wheel well.
