So you have no rubbing issues at all with 315's? Was thinking about some chrome bullits as well.....

No but my car is stock ride height. If you lower it then inner fenders will have to be beat in slightly and the quad shocks flipped. It is not a major ordeal. Well worth the added rubber and killer looks. I would imagine the quality of your rearend bushings will also play into whether or not you have rubbing.

I will be running stock ride height. Is a 275 a better choice?

I'm sold on the 315s, they look great and the added traction is wonderful.

Just wondering when you guys say quad shocks you mean the stock shocks?

i'm interested, in the same set up with the rear 17x10.5 and 315 tires

the thing i'm wondering also, i heard that after market upper and lower control arms will make the car a bit lower, will that be an issue?
