will 28" tall tire rub
Ok guys, Im going to be ordering my strip wheel and tire set up this week. I was wanting to run 28" tall tires just because of the sick stance you get from them on the rear. Will I have an issue with these rubbing? I have stock ride height in the rear with the bump stop spacers. Also what front skinnies are you guys using size wise that i can purchase through summit. Ive seen 155's and 185's and im really after 165's but couldnt seem to find any cheap ones. Im not paying $150 dollars for the mickey thompson fronts.

It really depends on a lot of different things, one can't just say yest they will fit or no they will not. First off, what wheels you going with? You want something in a 15x8 with a 5.5" BS or a 15x10 with a 7.5" BS.
If you go with the 15x8 a 275/60R15 would fit fine and shouldn't rub, but every car is different. A 275/60R15 will also fit on a 15x10. You can go with a 325/50R15 but I guarentee you that you will have to roll your fenders and pound on your inner fender well. But they sure look good.
Also, Mickey has some new 295/55R15's that I don't have any experience with, but they should be right between he 275/50's and the 325/50's by looking at the measurements.
A 165/80R15 is what you are looking for. I used to be able to get them at around 25 each since I'm a dealer but I just checked my cost and it has doubled since last year.
Hope that helps.
