Ad08r fitment

Just got a set of 255/275 ad08r's along with 12mm front and 10mm rear spacers. If I lower my car 1" in the front in back will I rub in the back. It looks like there will be very little room in the rear and might rub.

I have the AD08R on ZCP wheels in those sizes (255/35R19, 275/35R19) -- it is a VERY tight fit due to the more squared-off sidewall. I don't run spacers or have any sort of dropped ride height.

Honestly, I think it looks pretty awesome without the drop; the tires really fill in the wheel wells nicely.

Seems like you should've asked this question before ordering a bunch of parts...
