Default 17's anybody?
Hey I put 17's on an 87 GT, but I get rubbing off the front right side. Anybody else use 17's and get this?

If it is only on one side you might want to have your alignment checked and make sure your rack is centered with the outer tie rods.Sometimes when racks are put in and adjusted they aren't centered.You will have one tire that bottoms out one way and the other way the other tire has plenty of room.

My tires only rub when I turn the wheel completely.
But only on the A-Arm
Not that big of a problem but just can't make as small of a turning radius.
