I upgraded to 275's and I noticed very slight rubbing. My brother upgraded his firebird too and noticed the same thing. The rubbing doesn't really affect us though, infact the only way we saw it is when we went to change the tires and noticed a small rub spot on the inner wheel well plastic

I've been running 285's on the fronts now for several years....no issues at all.

So far no issues (5000 miles). I have a SLP Level 1 suspension and 285/40/17 on the stock SS wheels.
