Possible Rubbing Issues

Alright, I purchased the car with the lowering springs on it, and im PRETTY sure it's... (Not Positive)

Lowers Front 1.5"
Lowers Rear 1.0"

My problem is i plan on purchasing a set of 17's and putting 275/40/17's on the back, and 255/40/17's on the front.


Currently the car has the stock pony wheels with 245/45/16's on it and I'm just curious if anyone could tell me what to look for so i can check to see if i have the proper clearance before i go ahead and purchase the wheels/tires. I took the Axle Damper off the rear so I'm pretty sure i have clearance for that, but I'm mainly concerned with the actual vertical clearance with the 17's.

If anyone could help or give me advice for what to look at to check the proper clearances I GREATLY appreciate it.


Thanks ahead of time!!!

I'm still not sure, i plan on running the 03 Cobra wheels, with the nitto555 275s in the back and 255s up front. I really just dont want to buy the wheels/tires then find out that it rubs real bad
