I have these tires: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Kumho&tireModel=ECSTA+Supra+712&vehicleSearch=false&partnum=245WR6ES712 on the way... Any thoughts? Am I going to have a problem with rubbing or anything?

Shouldn't, because I'm running 225/50/16's on 16"x7" wheels and I've yet to rub.

Thanks for the response! For the record, I'm running stock E1 wheels and the BAT Sport Kit.

I almost forgot, if you DO load the trunk down with a lot of weight or get a couple of heavy passengers in the back, you may rub when going over dips, bumps, etc.

Since I hardly ever carry anything in the trunk and rarely have any passengers in the back, I've only rubbed once, and that was with a combination of the above (couple of 200lb.+ in the back along with some luggage going over a dip a little too fast). That was also with it lowered...

Otherwise, you should be in the clear!

Alright cool, thanks! I rarely have anyone in the backseat of my car, and the only heavy thing that is ever in the trunk is my speaker box. Shouldn't have any problems then!
