Ok so here's the question. I am looking for a rear end for my car. Currently has the tapered axle 8 3/4. Engine builder says he thinks the engine will put out 550hp. What is everyone running tire size with comparible hp. Curious how big of a rear tire I can get in the factory wheel well, and if it's possible to get a big enough tire to accommodate the hp in it, If anyone has shortened there axle and made it work, I'm not opposed to widening the wheel wells but would prefer not to. Just curious what you all are running for rearend/tire sizes and any suggestions/help.
