You can run virtually any diameter slick you want without altering the stock-style suspension. The problem is body interference. You can run some 28" slicks without altering the body. That assumes you have the correct offset wheels, and limit the section width to about 13". These are QTP 28x11.5-15's:

You can buy a direct bolt-in 9-inch rear from Currie or Moser. They come with all the correct brackets and torque arm mount. If you have a Fab9, Alston should be able to supply the required brackets and TA mount.

The big dogs are running 1.2x 60-fts with "stock style" suspension. Look at parts from Spohn Performance, BMR, UMI, J&M Products, etc.
