so, as my sig states, 98 z/28 which came with 16" wheels and 245 rubber,

since then, i installed factory ss 10 spokes with 275 rubber, never noticed any rubbing on the wheel well shield. i now have 17x9 sportmax 962's with 275 rubber and i noticed that when te wheels are turned into the well, there's slight rubbing marks on the shield.

so, why is this ? are the suspension setups that much different from a z/28 to an ss ??

its nothing bad but there's minimal clearance there, something i should be worried about ??

thanks

Should be no problem. Your wheels are most likely a different offset then the factory 10-spokes.

It doesnt sound too bad, you can always pull out a big hammer if need be

Not in the front.

Ooops, missed that. Let me revise my statement. You'll be fine, your not gonna have the wheel all the way cranked when youre going fast so i wouldnt worry about it. it does sound like the offset is a bit different.

got any pics?

or you could always just take the sheilds out, but i dont see how that thin plastic could do any damage to your tires.

Sounds to me that the offsets of the Sport Max wheels pushes the wheels a bit further out that OEM wheels, and now the tire rubs. Both my Camaros rub at full turn, it doesn't bother me.
