like Hikaru said, the pictures does exaggerate the gap a bit. There still is about a 2 finger gap at the front. Hikaru, kinda odd that yours rub, mine don't rub at all in with this setup.

Yeah I only get rubbing on full lock in the front and even then it's only occasional. I'm running Ventus v12 245's that are brand spanking new, they might run a lil wider than other tires idk about that. I don't rub in the rear but it's close, I can see 2 peeps in the back being a problem. Also dont have alignment yet. I bet if I dial in a lil more camber I'll b golden, I'm running stock settings now. All in all I think the 9.5 inch rpf1 with swifts are just about as perfect as u can get on the street! Your car helped sell me on the setup

Haha glad to have helped, they do look pretty damn near perfect for a street car. I bet they'd look even better with some 265's .I had an alignment done right when my springs were put in and the guy dialed in a bit more camber, probably why i dont rub.

I'm still getting a rub with the above set up on the driver's side. I even pulled the fender a little bit more to compensate and still got the rub on quick turns and speed bumps.

any thoughts of possibly being the bumper tab or bumper rubbing? I'm running -1.5 camber rear right now.

Yeah I'll be getting 265 next go around. What are your camber settings? I'm going to get an alignment next week and want to make sure I get enough - in there

I'm looking at 18x10.5 +15 with 295 track rubber
coilovers and running -2.5 camber at the rears

I notice a few guys running that sort of camber have only rolled, but they are often on 275 tires.
I'm guessing i need to man up and pull the guards like a 1/4-1/2" or so to stop this thing rubbing on the track?

anyone out there running this sort of setup, 295 tires?
