rear is almost sorta-flush, you definitely wont need to stretch the rear tires that much (over stretched looks dumb...)

the fronts will be alright with a roll/mild pull, but you'll need to measure the inner clearance to make sure you dont hit the spindle.

The spindle is the tall arm the connects to the control arms. Your wheel also connects to it. With a really wide rim, you might rub the tire on the top of the spindle. Look under there and you will see what we mean.
