    Mk IV 10.5 Tire Hitting Quad Shock

    Attached is a picture of my rear tire using Factory Five 10.5" X 17" Hallibrand replica. The rear end is a solid axle 8.8 from a '96 Cobra. The tire size is 315/35 R17 Sumitomo. As you can see the quad shock is hitting the tire. Does anyone have any suggestions?Rear tire to Quad Shock Compressed.jpg

    Turn the quad shock around to face the other direction. Another thing is you said a 96 rear end with 17 X 10.5 FFR wheels. This combination will most likely not fit within the fender-wells when you try to fit the body. That rear end is quite a bit wider then the standard 87-93 Mustang rearend. So you can either change out the axles or change the wheel offset. Sorry.
