nah, i was able to "negotiate"...you guys should know me better than that! i'm debating on going with 285's, but my tires are fairly new....so the spacers will be a temp fix.
285...30 or 25 series?

With spacers, you may potentially rub. I had 10mm spacers with my Mayas (285/25/20) and the fender was shredding the rear tires (this was when I had H&R sport springs)

when i eventually go 285/30....i will take out the spacers. think i'll still rub after a rolling?

What tires? Falkens will rub for sure. I suggest to roll your fenders to be safe

ps: SLAM the car John!... looks 4x4. When I get my new wheels, its going to be dropped even further ... vegastrashed style

prob Falkens, if things work out with "talks". but if not, i'll stick to Toyo's for the rounded edges.

dude, it's slammed for me already. i might need to lower the front driver side just to even it out, but i've hit the lowest i'm gonna go!
