i run 325/50r15s on a ten inch rim and it doesn't rub unless i really let the body roll if that tells you anything.

Back tires rubbing is all about getting the correct backspacing on the wheels. 15x8 is good with 5.5" BS. I'm running 15x9s with 5.5" BS and got some minor rubbing with 275/50-15s and a 1.5" drop. Nothing a little blue painters tape, a sledge, 4x4 wooden block and 20 min couldn't fix. If I wasn't in such a rush to get them rolled for the track, I would have done a write up. Very easy mod

I'm also running the same Mr. Gasket spacers up front no issues.

have a buddy that runs a 28" 275 ET Street with H&R springs, and it tucks the wheel well perfectly.

As for the front, for the best look, just cut off the bracket that crosses over the caliper. It serves no purpose anyways. Did that on mine and ran a 1/4" spacer and they tucked in the fender nicely.
