Work a little bit on fender lip .... I just like the 10 inch rim, but lots of guys use 8/9 in stock. Calvert makes a slick new one piece narrow leaf specifically for that application... I do not think it is much more money than SS springs. We make sure all tolerances are---- "favorable" on assembly and run the wider older Calvert Springs on our stuff. I believe the offset hanger is only about 3/4 (.800) difference. You can try offset Hangers and see if you get thru tech.....I would hate to drive 2000 miles for a race and get sent home. I KNOW that tech is not the same as 10 years ago but it would not work in those days.
