Weld wheel questions
I need to go with a 28" tall back tire, wondering if I would have any clearance problems in the back with 275/60 15s with 15x8s 5.5" back spacing? I was looking at the 15x4" fronts seems like everyone is running 155/80s which is less than a 25" tire, would I have issues with my ABS running 25" in the front and 28" in the back?

i run 275/60/15s on my car and ive had rubbing problems since the day i put them in. i switched the lower control arms to maximum motorsports adj. to raise it 2 inches, still didnt fix, then i had to change the rear springs to a set of qa1 300 lb 14 inch springs and that is what i currently run. as far as i know i have no rubbing but the car looks like a monster truck in the back.
up front i run the 155/80/15s on a 3.5 weld and i use the 7/16th spacer.
as for the abs all i did was put a piece of electrical tape over the abs light cuz it doesnt go out. as far as brakes go, they seem to work fine. they do 110 to 0 without problems.
