225/50/16 tires shock clearance on 87 turbo
Is anyone running 225/50/16 tires on stock rims? If so can anyone tell me what the clearance is between the tires and the stock springs or how to find out, Im wondering if my caster/camber is off, or mainly y my tires are all of a sudden rubbing the shocks

225s on a 7" rim will look like balloons, and yes, they'll likely rub on the springs in the front. I had 215s on 7.5" +45 rims with less than 5mm of clearance between the tire and springs. With stock wheels, you have even less room to work, and you have 10mm wider tires than I did.
