Ok... it must get REALLY close because it looks like the wheels are gonna be pretty flush with the fender flares.

I'm gonna drop it and hope for the best... but I am worried. I also hope the springs keep the car stiff enough so that it doesn't roll too much and rub the fender wells.

I don't know about running 275's up front, I am runnning 275/40/17 in the rear, and 255/45/17 in the front. The rear is fine, but the fronts rub at full lock, or when under heavey braking.

Oh jeez... I'm gonna be doing alot of heavy braking... dual piston fronts... almost full MM suspension... hmmm... I'm gonna be running 245/45/17 (on 9" rims tho) up front... that's what I'm worried about is the fenders not clearing.
