hey guys i was just wondering im looking at a set of 17 inch rtx wheels. they have 225/50's on them and i was wondering if they are going to rub or not, i know that 225 45 would work better but will the 225 50 work?? i know there will be a little speed difference i used wildweasels tire calculator and everything but i just dont want them to rub

Mr. Quick

Didn't see this the first time you posted it. Sorry man. I could have told you that they would be too tall, particularly if you're dropped.
That size is an inch taller than stock. Since it's also close to an inch wider, you're filling your wheel wells with too much tire.
