BTW. I have stock fenders with 2.5 degrees of camber in the front and they tuck fine. They just rub the wheel wells a little bit and side skirts.

Cheapest/easiest way to pursue the rears is cutting or rolling the inside lip off, run a 38-40 offset wheel and see if the 285s fit... the fender can also be pulled outward if rolling isnt enough... I would have a body shop quote you on it and perform it... search for posts on here by a member named Warrtalon, back in the day he used to post a lot and IIRC he ran 285's, tracked his car a lot-

sorry, I thought the question was how to fit 285's in the rear.

The +40 NT03's will help keep the 285's away from the rear fender lips at the cost of the control arms maybe seeing a little rubbing.

A good body man can make you wide body quarter panels from metal. Look at what hot rod custom shop's do on old Fords. Probably cost less than buying a wide body kit and really making it look sweet. Just ask anyone who buys Siebon doors and then finds out it will cost $5000 to install and make them look like new stock doors.

I have 285 V710s(yes I know they run smaller then the hoosiers) on 35 offset wheel. I also have quite a bit of clearance..They are my AX wheels so I would know if I had any rubbing.
I have pulled the rears and also relocated the back bumper bolt.
you can somewhat see the clearance...
