I had the same combo on my '07 wagon (Pro Kit + 215-45-17 rubber on Ford ST200 rims ) and had no rubbing issues whatsoever even when heavily loaded.

What's your rim's offset - maybe the problem stems from there.

The last time I was there these guys were rolling fenders - I have no idea how much. They're in Mississauga.

i use to have a 17x7.5 rim with 40 offset, definitely needed a roll on the rear with exact same springs back in the day. i would upgrade dampeners and roll the fenders and be mad flush. i loved those dimensions on my car but didnt wanna put up with rubbing.

they don't do it anymore but you can rent the fender roller cheap.


the catch is you might crack your paint

seriosly there's never a gurantee when the car gets with age
