I don't want to experience rubbing. Could I use a smaller sized tire? He said he did experience rubbing, but used the hammer method to fix that. These wheels look really dope and I want them! thanks... metallic teal 95 mystique V6 ATX debadged-no door dings-K&N filter-no hoodliner-SVT exhaust (thanks steve!)- Powdercoated Black E1s -SE side skirts in the garage!

An 8" wide rim itself will be you biggest problem! -Andy Andy Watson '99 Silver SVT #2397\| DOB 07/29/99 Graci! American Iron Shoot Out - Event Promoter! Check it out, we need your input!
