Thanks. I wonder if I'd be able to run 275s on my 9.5", 24 offset GT-Cs in the rear? I'm on stock springs.

It will be close... I'm not too familiar with the Tanabe springs. My guess is you will rub over large bumps only.

bump.
rubbing sucks. just finished trimming mine some more

and just a thought for the people who trim their bracket.. you may want to put some paint or something over it after trimming, because the metal that you trim will rust

for those of you running 19"s if you run a 30 rear sidewall you wont rub and wont need to trip the bracket. same goes for 20"s but you must run a 25 rear side wall. your tire choices drop big time. but you wont need to trim

Hey UNV, what size & offset are your GTM's in the rear? Also, what sidewall? I'm rubbing right now, and I'm running 10.5 +33 w/ 275/35.

10.5 +36 275-30.. zero rub. the 30 side wall is key

Ahhh. I think I'll jest have the rear raised up a bit more. There's only about a 1/2 finger right now. I was rubbing a lot before they stiffened my shocks one setting, and that helped out a lot.

anyone have pics of how a 275 tire looks on that 10.5 equivalent rim. or anyone has done any comparisons on how tire widths look on the same rim? kinda helps people to choose the look they want to achieve. or whats the smallest sizes we can run and highest. i would put the 285 as the highest just by seeing blackjacks setup.

I'm at stock height right now with 285/30/20 in the rear and they only time I hear a scrub or rub is when I go over a big dip on the street, do you think I should just try the cut some of the lining out? If that doesn't work then I guess I'd grind some of the bracket.

I got 305's w/ KW & SPC Camber and don't rub on the bumper bracket. I did trim the fender lining. All I used was a razor blade and only cut off a bit inside of where it rubbed through. Love the look of 305's but if I keep the car long enough for another set of tires will probably go to 285's. Just my 2 cents.

And, for the record, Ryan and Sharif at Forged are the Sh*t. Always take good care of me.
