    no, you won't rub. with those tires, you will drop maybe an additional .75 more at most with your existing drop. How much lower you need to go... well i say try what you have on; then calculate whether you need to go lower or not since you have adjustable sleeves.

      thanks

      i am getting some used with 70-80% life left mounted and ballenced for 130


      now i need to figure out how to adjust my camber

      i got a camber kit but when i put it on i didnt think about toe and tore up my tires

      but with a 215 on there my camber is gonna show hella fast and i need to get it fixed

        just shooting this out FYI... the camber kit won't fix the toe; get it aligned to fix the toe.

          no

          i got the toe from putting the camber kit on
          i dont have toe right now but i do have camber

          and with the style (ingals) kit that i have if you settings are not the same front and back then you get toe

          so its somthing i gotta look at now

          lol

            i'm not sure if stock rim's width will allow you to fit 215's on there. 215's normally fit 7.0 to 7.5" wide tires. stock rims are 5.5" wide.

                I don't think you will be able to fit 215 on the stock alloys. 215 is hella wide for the 5.5 width stock wheels.
