New 17's and No rubbing

[qws2000]

I was very happy to test drive the car and no rubbing

Size and backpacking stock brakes, springs, spindles, etc? Should add it to the wheels and tire thread

 

[xtremexnyc]

Those look and fit nice. How about some specs?

 

[qws2000]

Sorry guys, all stock spring, spindles and brakes. Back 17x9.5 b/s 4.5 and front 17x8 b/s 4 rims are Centerline CRS1, tires are,rear 285x40zr17 front 245x45zr17

Looks good. What brand are the rear tires? Got a view from the back?

thanx for all the nice things said about my car, but I will say I had 235/15s on M/T Drag Radails and I got better traction from them... And also the converter seems to hav a looser stall

i find it that bulge of tire has lots to do with rubbing....15x8 with 275 will rub while same back space on 17x9.5 with 275 40 will not.....for some people.

I definitely think you're on to something there. It seems like a lot of people on 17's+ are able to use 295's where it would be almost impossible to not rub of 15's.
