on the fender in the front is the only place where my 17x9's rub, the rears are 10.5" i had to remove the quad shocks and with 275's they are perfect on stock length axles, but i have 285's so they rub on the inner well a bit when the axle articulates.

I used to have that size on my 87 and it rubbed the fender only on slow hard corners.
