What is the biggest tire that will fit on a Fox body?
The aftermarket has learned the largest wheel a Foxbody can accommodate on all four corners without any rubbing or clearance issues is a 16 or 17 inch wheel shod with 245-width tires (ex: 245/50/R16). Running a larger tire/wheel combo can certainly be done, but not without modifying your Foxbody.
How wide of a tire can you put on a Foxbody Mustang?

Can I put a 10 inch wide tire on a 8 inch rim?
You can’t even fit a 10 wide tire on an 8 inch wide rim I wouldn’t think. You can go one inch without much of a problem typically, but two I don’t think would work. If it does fit, I would expect a ton of sidewall punctures but your rim being okay. But if you run it on a 10 inch wide rim, it would be like “normal”.

Can you put a steering rack on a fox body?
We say “possible” here, again, because every car differs. Mustang Steering Rack Limiters can aid in allowing a larger wheel and tire combination on the front of your Fox Body. They limit the travel of the rack, sometimes preventing tire or wheel rub on full-lock turns. Just don’t use too many of them, or your turning radius will suffer!
