[QUOTE=Jeff Kleiner;211411]The inner set of LCA mounting holes are for donor arms. I can not tell for sure from your photos whether you have 1994/1995 spindles or 1996 and later versions. The 1996 and later ones set the tire and wheel approximately 3/8" farther outward than '94/'95 and can be identified by their straight steering arm vs. the dogleg arm as shown here:

Even the 255 or 245 tire on a 9" wheel can wind up past the body with the wider '96 spindles. As Gordon said 275s don't fit well in either case.
As an aside I see that you have Bilstein coilovers. There was a problem with them failing and an upgrade was instituted. Check the diameter of the shafts---if they are 11 mm the upgrade has not been done and if 14 mm it has been. If not you need to send them to Bilstein for the rework. Let me know if you need the info on how to do so.
Cheers,
