Bought some bigger tires, will they rub?
« on: October 04, 2008, 01:00:17 AM »

I got a excellent deal on some almost new tires and wheels. However they are 205-70-R15 and they seem huge compared to the 195-70-R14 that were on originally. I only need them for a rear and I am just wondering if they will rub the upper control arm? Grin

I have 215 or 205 - 45 - 17s and they only rub the fender wells when I hit a bump too hard.

You shouldn't have any problems with rubbing unless your offset on the new wheels is way off.

Touché...

Figured you would say that, I will be dropped as soon as I get my other strut, we'll see what happens.
