![]() I don't want any rubbing at all. I have a 93 at the stock height, and 16" pony rims. I already know which tires to get, but I don't know how wide I can get em'. Thanks, Keith

![]() I have 245/50/16 inch Nitto drag radials on the back of my LX. They fit fine, I think the widest you can go with the stock rim is a 255.
Later,

![]() I have 15x7's or 15x8's, never checked to see which one, with 265/50/15's and I only rub on the driver side because my suspension is shot. The car sits ~2" lower on the driver side than the passenger. If I fix that, they shouldn't rub at all.

![]() I have 275 40 17 on the back of mine no rubbing at all and I have not removed the quads or modified anything.
My buddy runs 285 40 17 and same thing no rubbing and no mods. We both have ROH rims with the stock offset. My car is lowered 1.5 inches as well
