RE: Will they rub?

I know I have posted this before, but I have H&R Sport Springs (about a 1.5" drop in the rear, and 1 1/4"drop in the front"and I have rubbing issueswith my 315/35's in the rear. I had my fenders rolled and I still sliced a sidewall. I put a 1/4" spacer on my rear springs and that seems to have fixed the problem.

RE: Will they rub?

so i guess it goes without saying that if i get 18x9s in the front and 18x10s in the back with Steeda sport springs, i'll have issues.....tire sizes

I wasnt thinking of any details, sorry, what size backspacers do you have on? What are you running on the rear?

What tire size are you looking to do and what style wheel are you doing? That will help a lot. I run a 285/35/18 on rear and have 18x9 all around my bs is 25mm I believe. Dan

I basically am looking at th same thing you have only with 18/10's in the rear.

You'll be fine in the back running an 18x10 with a 295min or 305 max and you should not have a lot of problems running a 275 or 265 in the front. I would keep 35 as the highest profile nothing more or else it will be to thick and you risk rubbing etc.

Nope you should not have any probs with those sizes.
