Default Yuck. Super low and fenders not rolled or wheels with bad offset? If you rub with smaller

than stock size, you should change something IMHO. Plus the 35 will put you even lower to the ground.

Default i dont really rub only on a super hard bump with people in it. Is mtm springs super low?

i rolled my fenders a little but i could do a little better. hey rktskicar your car doesnt rub with those 255s when you push it hard into corners?. Wouldnt a 35 series help with the slight rub?

They do not rub at all. Trackworthy, serious corners. Been rolled major , liners trimmed.
