Tires rubbing

[boxcarracer89]

I have some 15 welds, w tire size 225/60 and everytime I hit a small dip the inner fennder is rubbing the side of my tire and starting to tear the side of the tread. I have factory shocks and springs, should I bend the lip of the fender in so its not sharp? Its also bottoming out on the driver side?! Thanks for the advice in advance!

What rim size and backspace is it? I assume your car is an 89?

The rims are 15s, Im not sure the backspace, and its on a 92 stang.

225/60/15 is the standard tire for a foxbody. Your offset is messed up big time.

Get some cheap factory 15" aluminum "cheap" 10 hole wheels for those tires.

it wouldnt hurt to inspect your springs and shocks

The factory springs and shocks are still on! I just ordered some Tokico blues and see where it goes from there!! Thanks again!
