SS rims on a 94

Ok, heres the deal. i got some 17x9 ss wheels from slp during the winter. i put them on recentlu and now i have a small problem, at full turn i am getting some rubbing against the plastic of the inner front fenders. the tires are 275 40r 17, and i was under the assumption that they would not rub. any suggestions?
thanks
Justin

Mine never rubbed in the front but mine is a Camaro. I don't know if that makes a difference. Did you get the correct offset? I don't even know if SLP has different offsets or not, but worth checking into. Also, do you have a lowered car. Mine is lowered but only a little.

mine is also a camaro. and no it is at the stock ride height. the offsets are correct. does anyone else have this rubbing problem? i know a ton of people are running this wheel /tire size combo, so is my car just a freak or what?
thanks

Mine don't rub(I have a 2000 but that should not really matter)


Though a freind of mine with a 35th LE Camro SS his 10-spokes rub a little at full lock.

Crazy, that is the first time I heard of the 275 rubbing. Good luck!

yeah, mine are the 10 spokes also and they rub only at full lock. hopefully it isn't enough to really do any damage
