Where are you rubbing? Do you know the rim width?
Any pics.

i am rubbing in the back most of the time and in a front then i turn my wheel all the way to the left or right.
I am sure fronts are 8.5 and backs 10
The pics are in my user folder but let me put few in here.
thanks for the help

285???? Wow that's wide.
Maybe roll the fender to start?

You dont happen to have any shots more parrallel to the car body of the rear tires right? 285 is hella wide so some rubbing would be expected. If the sidewall of your tire is rubbing then a fender roll will help a bit but it isnt gauranteed to solve the problem.

As for the fronts, someone else may need to chime in. Thats one aggressive setup you got.

Excuse my ignorance but what is "fender roll" and how is it accomplished?
