Dwight,

It is a 9 inch. There are a lot of variables here, such a wheel back spacing, ride height, tire pressures, axle placement fore/aft, it goes on. My 315/35/17 on 11 inch rims (don't remember the back spacing) line up very nicely with the fenders, look great, but with very aggressive driving and low-medium tire pressures the tires will rub.

When I had the 335s the axle had to be moved back slightly, the center of the wheel didn't line up with the center of the fender quite right. I've seen quite a few LSCs with this setup. It gets you a really wide tire but looks a bit odd.

As far as fender clearance, it depends; at rest, going over a bump, carving the perfect apex.....
