    wheel wells

    ok heres my problem. when i bought my rims they came with 225/40/18 all around. now i have 225/40/18 in front and 235/40/18 in the back. now my problem is i get wheel rub in the back when i go over bumps at speeds 40+ but not to often. about an hour ago i had 3 ppl ni the back and i sware it rubbed 70% of the way to the store but when im by myself or only have a front passenger its no were near as abd as that. now when i had the 225/40/18 on rear i could put a elaphant in the back and not have a problem with wheels rubbing. now my question is. am i better off going back to 225/40/18 in the rear, rolling the fenders or cutting the wheel wells. what would you guys suggest?

    thanks for the help beforehand

    I would go back to 225. Why did you go with 235 in the back?

    Well there are two options for you......Either you go back to 225 or get yourself a set of KYB and put them on 3-4 stiffness......

    tires

    Roll your fenders!! Its alot cheaper than buying new tires.. Its probaly less that 1/16 inch off anyways..
