Rominl, I thought you said anything beyond a +38 would rub?

no i said i had 8.5 +38 and it didn't rub at all, and i have 8.3 +32 and it rubbed a bit (i ended up doing some mod to the front fender and the rubbing is gone. stay tuned for info). so if you want to play safe, i think +35 is a good number. i still saw some space with my 8.5+38
