Will tire size 245/45/19 rub or give any problems for the front oem rims ? I am dropped on Eibachs. thanks

 

Nope. Number of us are running them. No issues.

 

cool! thanks!

 

Could also use 245/40-19 to give a bit more clearance.

 

OK I have to correct my post.....I missed the "45". Most common set up is 245/40/19, 275/35/19.

 

Believe it or not, you will rub taking steep corners at high speed or at the track (there are a few pix on my AutoX thread that prove that)

 

Are you running the same tire sizes in that picture? and you have spacers too right? I don't have spacer.

 

Well not the same exact one but if 245/40 rubs then the 245/45 will definitely rub

You should be fine on straights though

 

yep i agree

 

Sam, you rub with 245/40 and NO spacers? I can see you rubbing with 245/40 and 20mm spacers on hard corners. I am running 245/40 in the front with 15mm spacers and have no rubbing at -0.4 camber no matter how hard I corner.

I do have rubbing on 275/35 with 15mm spacers at -0.9 camber in the rear and large dips / bumps. Rubbing is against the lining that I need to trim.

 

I wouldn't know because the spacers came in before the tire upgrades. But I believe with an eibach drop and crazy cornering you will rub in the front at least

 

Couldn't say if it will or will not rub, but can say it will look STUPID..DONT DO IT!

 

thats because you are running the wrong tire size - like everyone said go to 245/40/19. im running that with 15mm spacers and a eibach drop with NO issues, including some hard mountain road driving.

 

I am running 245/40/19 on the front stocks- no spacers. I included an offset in the rear with 275s- agaiin no spacers. I am on a Tanabe drop. There is no way it will possibly rub. The eibach drop is a little more agressive but not too much more. I can't envision how it would possibly rub without spacers.

 

maybe his alignment is off too? who knows.
