yea saleen REPLICAS with 295/35/18s wil rub a little on the rear fender lip of a moderately lowered car with people in car and when hitting driveways at angles that push the tire way up into the fender.

its not a big problem tho. just roll the fender lip back a little.

and run 265/35s in front and 295/35 in rear...the way them come stock from saleen or roush. 245s would look dumb.

I have a Kumho 295/30/18 in the rear, and in very severe turns (80mph or more ) I can rub the back tire.

But I'm sure most people don't drive like more, or at least they shouldn't
