I just mounted/balanced 18" FN01R-Cs +48 all around. I am lowered on Espelir springs... I rub all the time... 225's up front and 255's out back. How do i fix this??? AHHH
run 245's in the rear. That fixed the rub for me without having to roll my rears. What width are your rims?

do you rub front and back? you should be running 245's in the rear. 255 on 8.5 is overkill.

^8.5... i think ap2 v1s are 8.5 right? if not, they are 8 and there are plenty of guys running 255's in the rear

i personally prefer 245's but there are others running the larger setup

well I used to run 255's in the rear with 5Zigen GN+ proracers. 17x8.5 +48 and they would rub on bumps on the freeway. Once I switched to 245's VOILA! No more rub! I was so happy

yea it will work if you have like a +63 offset. Our offsets are way lower so it rubs

Yep. Make sure you don't have any bondo on your rears! I tried to roll my rear fenders but one side was bondo'd so we couldnt Also I suggest flare your fronts just in case you wanna go wider later

I can't wait to run 17x9 +45 all around
