What's the width?

they are 20"by 8.5"

No they will not tuck.You would need a +50 or more t tuckthat wide of a wheel or a narrower axle.

yep. my 22x8" wheels with plus 30 offset dont tuck on 2wd sheetmetal so i used 4x4 sheetmetal and now they tuck. depending on where you are at.. i have a shorter rearend from a 71 datsun (same bolt pattern) if you are interested let me know. it is roughly 4-4.5" shorter than the stock rearend.

I have 20 x 8.5 voodoo 407 wheels with drop spindles and the spindles ( they push the wheels out about an inch) are why I no longer tuck even wit 4x4 sheetmetal up front, as it sits I cant even fit my fenders back on,(bolted) and if yer under the impression that you will be able to turn em, sorry , I would not try to fit 20s unless you are willing to change out yer brake booster etc. etc, it takes some real determination and custom work and parts , to lay out. Especially while maintaining any performance.
If yer well equipped and have the skills its possible and I hope all the best fer ya. Buy the narrowest rubber possible
Then maybe you can help me, lol

I am considering zing the front end to pull the wheels in, the temptation is to build a frame as I stare at my 4 link parts and c notch
If a V-8 is a possibilty in the future to actually be able to push them things not mention be able to stop, space gets tighter too.
There is a guy on here Chris Allred who builds arms to pull 20's in a bit and he has few sets out there workin already

I'm not giving up, nor should anyone else
this aint no daily driver, but if I could do it again I would have went with 18"s up front , or never put spindles on, wish I still had my old ones, damn!
I'm gonna figure it out as I go ahead and bag this biotch, I'll be posting as I go on the thread I have on this issue.
Again best o luck there is a lot of good support on here.
