For those of you with lowered rides and wide rear tires?

My LT1 has 17x11 TTIIs with 315 Sumis. It's lowered with a Pro-Kit and I also did the heater hose mod. I had to roll the lips and I also replaced the bump stops(the stock ones were gone). I took the bump stops off my CETA and used spacer and I haven't had a single problem with it

With a 50mm in the front, you will need a spacer. If you grind the nub off the spindle then you won't need as big of a spacer. Grinding the nub off was pretty easy, so I did that and added a 5/16 inch spacer (hubcentric) and used longer ARP wheel studs

Wow, everyone seems to have overlooked that he is talking about rubbing under acceleration. It would seem you are running a very soft spring combined with soft shocks. Hard acceration should not cause the rear to drop that much. What are your spring rates and what shock are you running?

I'm not sure what he meant by fender welds so I assumed he was rubbing on the outer fenders, which you can solve by rolling the fenders or doing something to provide clearance in some way.

315/35ZR17 Nitto Drag Radials on 17x10.5 TT M's
Car is lowering with the Eibach Sportline kit (WHICH I HATE!!!!) and does not hit anywhere. It has an adj panhard rod and torque arm.
I tried my slicks and that was just ugly, OH well, this spring it will be getting the Strano/Koni Combo.
