I will be needing new tires soon and installing swift springs. Think I will get any rubbing iwth the 265/35s? (I autocross)

Thanks

No issues here. Run Hankook RS-2's 265/35/18 on my Advan RS-D's 18x10+25 with Swifts.

Im running 275/35 with my stock rims and have no rubbing at all.

How sloppy does that feel? 8.5" rim with a 275 must have allot of sidewall roll over. Would think 265 would be the widest recommended for an 8.5" rim. Though you are running a smaller profile tire (35 instead of 40 so that might help).

not sloppy at all, has the same diameter as the stock tires. Only reason I am using 275's is cause I sold my stock ones and these were the ones that came off my other rims. I didnt want to buy another set of tires so i just used these on the stock rims till I get my new rims.

I find it hard to believe that you can actually run 275/35/18 on your stockers. What tires are they?

/\/\ post some photos, curios on what they look like?

HR2L and Monkey can I see pics? Do either of you autocross?

I think the autocross part is a key question. I have 265/35/18 on 18x9.5 wheels with stock suspension, and it's fine for normal driving, but in certain autocross turns, I occasionally will hear what I think is some rubbing from the front. Granted, my wheels are wider, but for autocross, I don't think you'd want to run such a wide tire on the stock 8.5" rim anyway. I think you'd get better performance running a star spec (which runs wide) in 245/40/18 on the stock wheel. The sidewalls will be too soft with a 265 on a 8.5" wheel.

I've been reading a lot of conflicting posts about lowering the car without the roll center kit from white line. Do you Swift users notice more body roll after installing the springs?

Also, did anyone match with a set of shocks yet?

Thanks

Believe it cause its true, I have no reason to lie, Falken 452's.

Here you guys go, the rims are dirty but I took them from the side so you can see that they are the stock rims.

That doesnt look bad at all. Do you autocross?? This would be the determining factor on weather or not they rub!
