Pro's - Con's??Was thinking about trying it becouse I bought the wrong offset for my wheels..
Just make Joe pay for it. Hell, he drives it more than you do anyway!
Make sure you take some good pics..
If it works out well I might just have it done with the 9" end caps and new axles/locker is installed.
It should also allow for a true 15x10" rim to fit..
Dave,I have 325's on mine. Narrowing the rearend is a fairly big task. You'll have to relocate the LCA's and shocks as well as take some time with the geometry changes. With the 325's, it rubs the front and rear a bit as well as that support in the inner fender directly above the axle housing. Easily fixed with some banging The 2 main things that prevented me from shortening the rearend was 1. The Bogart's will no longer fit. 2. Totally eliminates me from running in any "stock suspension" classes. Might as well fully tub the rear and go 4 link at that point.
Dave,
Are you running MT's or M&H or neither? I just ordered the M&H 325/45R17 because several folks said they fit (even saw pics). I'll be pissed if I have to take out the BFH to run them!

clearance? I don' need no stinkin' clearance...bahaaaaaaaa.LOL
I have them on my car right now, and they fit awesome. They aren't as wide as my 275 Nittos were, but a little taller. I'm not lowered, but I can't see where they would be an issue (as long as the wheels have the correct offset, i.e., ~45mm).Dave,
