Default Anyone running 17x8 RPF1's in the Rear

Both Evasive and TireRack sell these sizes.

I would like to run the RPF's but don't have the resources locally to roll and pull the rear fenders.

I'm curious how the 17x8's look in the back.

I just mounted them with 255s and they rub big time. Fronts rub with 225s too.

the 17x8's rub ? I'd assume since TireRack sells them they fit. Usually they don't sell wheels you need to adjust the suspension for.

Well they wouldn't rub with a 245.
