a arm or knuckle ?

i know of numerous OBS trucks lowered running a 15x7 with no issues.

it will be more dependent on back spacing than anything. Second will be diameter.

the 8" wheel may have the depth to contact the a arm on turns, but what i see more is contact with the tierod mount...

i remember way back, a friend used a lower budget name spindle, bolted on with out issue. i used a belltech, and my toe was way off, as they pulled the tierod mount way in to clear wider wheels.
