Talking Anyone running a 255/35/20 on rear ls 400

I'm running a 255/35/20 on my 95 ls 400 rear wheels with a 5/16 spacer. On the passinger rear side I have rubbing on the fender. I was woundering if this could be my shocks going out since it's only rubbing on one side whenever I hit a bump. I'm also running spacers on the front due to the brake caliper 5/16 which is ok.

either roll your fenders or buy wheels that fit, a 5/16in spacer is roughly 8mm, which pushes the wheels out FURTHER. get some wheels made for big brakes, or roll your fenders.

why do you need the spacers on the rear? you obviously arent going for a "flush" fitment since urcar is still stock heigh...

and for the record, i run a 255/35-20 on my rear


no rubbing at ALL in the rear, minor rubbing on the inside fender liner when im parking at full lock.
