tire shop has a sale of 295/50/15's, woundering what they look like in the back and possible front.

thanks S-C

too much stuff - any rubbing in the front? Do you know what your backspacing is on the front?

Stock ride height with 8" rally wheels on all 4 corners. No idea on backspacing. Never had a problem with rubbing. I would like to see a little more height in front to fill the wheelwell more. (imo) Only problem i have is wide tire= more maint.

I hear you there, I'm going for 295/40ZR20's on all four corners with 20x8.5 rims... I was unsure about clearance but you just made my mind up! Thanks!
