Lift size question

[lil red]

About to pull my body off and get serious about the build. I want to do the mod to the back fenders using the lips off a set of front fenders. Here is a pic of one I have seen.

I have the wheels and tires already. American racing AR23s (15x10) wrapped with 35x12.5s.

My plan was to do a 5 1/2" suspension lift with extended radius arms and dual shocks all around.

I just wanted to get advice on if this will work. Any foreseen issues with rubbing, etc. I won't do any heavy wheeling, mainly just a weekend toy!

Thanks for the help!

I am curious to hear an answer on this. I like the look of the fender flares.

5.5" of lift with long arms shouldn't give you any issues with rubbing with 35" tires.

Whats your backspacing on the rims? 3.5"?

P.S. next time don't post such a sweet pic - we're easily distracted

Sorry about the pic. I figured that out looking at the responses.

Backspacing on the wheels is 3.77". Thanks.

I'm 99% sure you'll be more than fine with that setup. I'm running 3.5"SL and 2" BL with 35x12.5s with 3.5" BS (so mine will stick out a little farther). I've got a fiberglass body wtih larger flares but I dont ever expect the wheels to contact the fenders.
