Damn that sucks man... yeah not having a garage would make me freak out all the time. That’s why I got locking lug nuts on my wheels to have some safety.

Lowered on d2 coilovers with Godspeed rear camber arms.

Next season will be putting some 265/35 tires.

You experiencing any rubbing on this setup? I recently picked up 18 x 9.5 +35 and don't know if I should stretch my 235s or just upgrade to 245s. Concerned about rubbing on a daily basis.

After your springs settle, you will rub even with stretched 235. All on the outer most of the tire that should go away with fender rolling. If you aren't down to roll your fender, choose different springs, or don't go 9.5 wide with the 235 tire. You'll hear it rub on most dips.

I have zero rub with 9.5 with 235s with settled springs. That said his wheels are 5mm more aggressive so there may be some fender tab rubbing. The fender tab cab be rolled VERY easily and likely would stop the rubbing.

Well they rub because theyre on D2 springs, Slightly lower than the Skunk 2s you have
Ahh makes sense. I didn't see where he mentioned what springs.

That's with your Skunk2 springs. If he/she is gonna run D2 springs, you'll rub. But I just noticed that they were asking about D2 coilovers, so that extra stiffness may actually keep them from the rub.

Thank you guys for quick responses and feedback! I'll run the 235s stretched for a little bit and consider the fender tab modification. I'm lowered on H&R springs which are far less aggressive in drop than Skunk and D2.
