RE: [BaadAssGremlins] 15 inch wheels

["Petriew, Kelly" <petriew@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have 275/60/15s and no rubbing but there is only about a 1/2" clearance between tire and the rear-ward part of the rocker (where the well starts).

I wouldn't go larger than 60 series (50 probably better) unless you are tubbin' (then go nuts!)

 

on the front i have 205/75/14 BF Goodrich Radial TAs and they are "just" small enough.. in fact i remember them rubbing a little when i turn to the right but it could be something i overlooked. car is @ farm so can't go look right now to confirm.
