no relocation of the axle is necessary, just bolt them up and your good to go.
just like Nashvegas i was going to go with the 45`s but when i was shopping for the tire
i found that the 45`s do not hold the weight of the saab,
comes to be the 45`s hold max weight of 1015 pounds or around this figure.
i looked and looked the best 45` tire i found had a load carrying weight of 1100 pounds no where near the 1990 pounds needed.
so i went with 50`s and found parelli made a tire that weighed in at 2010 pounds,
seeing i rack on the hwy miles and keep the car in high speeds the majority of its life i thought it would be best not having an under wait tire coming apart on me while i was throwing down somewhere in the world at 110 mph.
so i fitted the 50`s
rubbing was a problem.... as you notice i said it was a problem.
with a minor adjustment to the rear axle bump-stops the tires will never rub, and the car can run with the right load barring tires.
ill include what it looks like with the bump-stop installed.
