did you install hub rings on the front? if so, would you happen to know the size?
The rims came with rings in all four corners. I do not know the size myself, but I am sure Jim can help you.

OK, here are the pics. My car is filthy and I havent put any dressing on the tires, so my appologies. For reference, the car is dropped about 1" on Espilirs.

I have heard a very faint and brief rub in the rear only when I hit big sweeping dips in the road at high speed. This was not on the highway, but rather a two lane road with a 55mph speed limit. It is old and kinda bumpy. Gonna get it alligned on Monday to see where the settings are.
