If you run TRC's on a 12L3 or Yok, you need to grind down the lower rear pod plate to allow clearance for the tire. TRC's are a different offset than Jaco's. Jaco's mount flush with the hub. TRC's are offset into the wheel alittle. That's why they rub on certain cars. My RugRat is slightly trimmed for this. Just get a dremel with sanding drum and go over the lower pod a couple passes til it clears. Simple, fast, easy. Just don't forget to go over it with superglue on a QTip to seal it back up.
Hey, just wanted to add my opinion on this subject. I do not trim my lower rear pod. Instead I add shims onto the axle before mounting the wheel in order to keep the same with as the Jaco tires. Trimming rear lower pod will work but because of the offset the TRC tires will narrow the rear end of the car. Hope this helps.....
