Re: 17x10.5 rims

Yeah you can either flip the quad shocks or remove them. This is my car with 17x10.5 w/ 315/35/17's out back. Zero rubbing. I have Eibach Sportline lowering springs w/ ISO's, no quad shocks (aftermarked LCA's), and 3 inch exhaust tips.

Re: 17x10.5 rims

has anyone had rubbing issues with aftermarket exhausts?

Re: 17x10.5 rims

I would go with something else other then a sumitomo for some reason to me they seem to have a bubbly sidewall. I know there one of the few Radials left that aren't outrageous. That's just my .02. Also i know on the 03 GT catback i have on mine. I hope to have 10.5" wheels within a week or so, but on the catback the stock piping has a flat spot to allow i guess for a wider tire.

Re: 17x10.5 rims

I had a slight exhaust rub but i just tapped the pipe in a lil. Heres some photos when i first got my new rims and tires a year ago.

Re: 17x10.5 rims

well ive got mine on, but for some reason when i went out of the driveway i heard a little rubber rubbing on something. wtf could it be?

i looked with a light, its not the exhaust, quad shock, wheelwell, or quarter panel.

True, but they will oxidize.
