Would be easier to change your wheel offset?

^^^ well i did think of lathing the back
space area to bring it in but 10 mm seems too
much to take off..
Have the guards been lipped or is tire
right under guard rubbing on outer wheel well
because shes low.what size are tires.
Perhaps get the next size down?

If you are considering going to the trouble of shortening the humble banjo why not do a borg warner conversion instead? If you ever start chasing more power you will have a diff up to the task. Shortening a banjo will still cost a bit of coin which seems like a waste to me.
