Actually i did...It tucked the inner lip quite well but even then i still have slight rubbing. Would be great to pull my fenders out like the white FD...would definately solve my prob and give me the ability to run 285s.

Hey apneablue, why are you having rubbing issues? Is your car lowered? Because I'm on the stock suspension, and I'm running 285s in the rear w/ no problems whatsoever, w/ nothing rolled.

Hey dude,
When I had the stock suspension I didn't have any trouble either. I would have very minimal rubbing and the suspension would have to get REALLY compressed for it to rub (was not rolled at the time either). Now I have the H&Rs and stock R2 springs. With 275s on Gramlgiht 57Pros 17x9 & 10 +38 & +40 offsets, wrapped in 275/40 & 245/45...There is no rubbing up front (at first I had some front fender liner rubbing that was ever so slight it just took dirt off but it quit now)...And the rear now rubbs slightly when compressed about medium...Actually, i could live with it but rather if it didn't have to. I always wanted to run 285s but seems they will rub more without pulling the fender out a bit.

Gotcha...so the H&Rs did the trick, eh? I'm on the stock R suspension. My offeset is funky tho...(all that Tire Rack offered). Rears are more than fine, but the fronts (245/35/18s on a 8.5" wheel) do rub the fender liner...at least the front left one does.

Both of you are clueless LOL j/k

Yes, Jason (of JT Imports) closed up shop as of February 8th, IIRC. But he's still posting. I've seen quite a few recent posts from him actually.

Yeah Im still around filling the final orders plus I have an (FD) still...

Ok this is all I have.

As you can see in the picture where it touches, which is perfect for me, since I didnt want any rough edges. The car isnt done yet and im waiting to get my new suspension, after I get that all tunned it, it shouldnt touch except for maybe hard turns on the track, since I will be running more rubber and a smaller wheel OF COURSE. On the street it also wont be even a little problem, which it isnt now..
