It's been done, but you'll likely need to be careful with the offset and spacers. You'll also need to be lowered. Clearance may be an issue depending upon your selection.

When you go that wide you need some drop for clearance on the front, unless you don't mind keeping your wheels pointed straight forward all the time.

With some of the builds I've seen, that 'straight forward' thing must not be a big concern.

I'm racking my brain trying to think where there might be a clearance issue. Can't picture anything. Now I'm gonna have to actually look under the car. Bout time I took care of that tie rod end anyway. I've been putting off replacing it all winter.

Man, I wish I had a garage.
