I have the espelir springs w/koni shocks and i'm riding on Racing Hart M5's 18".

Just make sure that you have an alignment at the same time you put on the springs and/or the shocks. After putting on the springs and shocks I was rubbing at first, then I found out that the shop where I had them install and align it did not do the alignment. After I took it to Les Scwab to replace the rear tires they also did an alignment and there was no more rubbing.

thanks for the input guys.
Nobody: Offsets are +48 and +50 rear.

2002S2000, does the tires 'sink' into the fenders? Sorry, can't clearly see the fender gap on the pic.

Thanks

It's about a one finger gap.
