17x9 front wheels RUB? - Page 2 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I have 17x9 +17 and 255/40-17's on stock fenders without an issue. It does rub the framerail a hair right towards full lock(on the rack), but that's due to the tall tire and not very severe. I could probably run a bit more caster and be fine with the current setup 100%.

Decided to go 5 lug, and get some better wheels. Just purchased an RSX so gotta put my 240 on hold untill I get some mods under that hood. Thanks for all the help. I kinda like the 962's besides the wieght.
