I put H&R springs on my car and its rubbing up front pretty bad, with huge 225 60 16s. What size tire should I go with? (stock wheels)

I have H&R springs up front as well, with 225/50R16 on stock 5-spoke... and it hasn't rubbed ONCE.

do you guys think they will fit ok?

 

[SupraRzTT]

Should fit alright with a roll. Maybe a lil pull up front.

cool i was worried because i only have about 2.5 to 3 inches of ground clearance from the lowest point on the car

People say upt to 3 degrees negative at the front and 2.5 negative at the rear but you're car would have to be pretty low to achieve this with the stock control arms. What offsets are your 11 inch wheels at the back? You'll be cutting it pretty fine on the inside.

Running xxr 521s 18x10 +25 offset up front with 225/40 strech and ssr veinnas dish 18x11+23 offset out back with a235/40 streched

anyone running MB battles 17x9.5 15 offset? thinking of going 18x8 30 offset but not sure about tire sizes for either setup, i will eventually lower my car but for now it still sits kind of low no where near 4x4 height.

 

[ANBUryan]

Hope this helps some of you guys.

Ya there are more in my old build thread but there are a bunch of pages to go though. When I have time tomorrow I will see if I can find some and post them in here.

Hi, anyone have the answer for my question?

From what I've seen at car shows, most people just take them out or cut them back. I'm assuming the tire hits them when the car is lowered very low.

Taking them completely out is not the best idea though. Dirt and water will get into places they shouldn't. They're also there for aerodynamic reasons. Something about airflow around the tires.

I love those wheels... I was trying to find something like that for my car back when I got my current set. Gold centers with silver rims on a flat black car looks badass.
