wheel question

i did a bit of searching (mostly through the fc wheel fitment thread) and couldn't really find what i needed to know.

i have a set of impul silhouettes, 17x8 +36 up front and 17x9 +36 in the rear. i was out putting the fronts on today (**** you tennessee humidity) and after i set the wheel on the hub and hand tightened the bolts, i noticed that it seemed to be rubbing the suspension! i let the jack down and it still seemed to be, but i wasn't toally sure. i checked the back and it definitely didn't seem like the rears would fit.

am i just being too cautious or will they fit?

Rears are fine.

I still think a 8.0", +35 is just too tight up front.
You're running 1mm further in!
I would've predicted it would've hit stuff inside.

Just run a small spacer up front...
