I have a mini tubbed bu with frame notch. How would i measure inorder to fit the biggest tire with what size rim. Curently has a 15x10 prostar, dont remem backspacing with a 28x11.5 et street. I have about 2" for room to the inside and about an inch to the fender lip, up words it seems i can fit atleast a 30" tire, maybe more. Any help would be great.

I'd say to start with finding the center line of your wheel then dividing the section width of your tires in half. This will give you what will physically fit between the fender/frame or fender/wheel tub. Just make sure to measure at the narrowest point.

I think with a tire that tall the front bottom edge would be the problem area.I tried a 29.5 on a 10" rim and had about a 1/4" between the tire and the lip.I was going to trim the opening but went back to a 28" tire instead.
