My 15 inch wheels cleared the brakes and all, close, but fine.He ended up having to do some grinding for his particular wheels - but is using MTs on 15s.

Thanks guys←29.5 is actually quite tall, so that's sketchy as it is, but 10.5 width wont fit under without some guard modification. 15 inchers can fit, depending on what sort of brakes it's wearing.
