There are two 'fits' to check for the tire/wheel combo. The one while the car is rolling, and the one with it jacked up for tire/wheel replacement (putting on the spare). The rear suspension 'drops' as the car is jacked from the frame. It is possible for a tire/wheel to 'roll' but not be able to be removed.
Just for jollies, see if the current tire/wheel can be removed when the car is jacked up. I'm not saying it won't, just suggesting finding out when one doesn't need to change a flat. In the process you may see what kind of room you have to work with.
This tool will answer your question. Just be sure to fully articulate the suspension to see it iit hits something such as frame or fenders on turning as well as full compression and full extension.
That looks great! Is it lowered 2" in the front with drop spindles?
What size and brand tires did you go with?
Thanks!
