I have some 1.25 inch spacers. If I have my wheels widened inward to a total of 11 inches, will I have any clearance problems? I've measured and it doesn't seem like I will, but am I forgetting anything? Also, a 335 nitto would be appropriate, correct?

i have 325s on 10 in wide 19s and its close, the bump stops touch the rim if you jack the car up by the frame

it touches the tire, but if you think about it when are you ever going to have the suspension at full droop, and if you did i think that the tire rubbing the bump stop is the least of your worries. i may redesign the bump stop bracket as it sticks out from the frame to make some more room. the 325s are nice but i would like to have some 345s as well!

You should be all right to the inside with the spacer but you will need to move the part of the frame that the axle bump stop hits that has been previously discussed. My wheels are widened to 10 inches with no spacer and they fit so yours should fit to the inside with the spacer. I am not sure if you will have any clearance issues to the outside. I run 295/45/17 and have plenty of space to the outside.
