FYI .. i have 215/45R17s in the rear with my spacers and i dont rub in the rear. I do touch the tires if my rear springs are compressed completely, but i can still drive. Its been this way for almost 4 years now.
On the same topic, does anyone recall if the bolts that come with the kit are hardend? Meaning are there any little lines on the top of the bolt? I just bought a set used and they arent hardend steel, just plain ol'bolts. Im strongly cosidering buy at least a 1 or a 2 step up over non hardend metal.

The ones that came with the kit are (metric) 8.8, which is really not all that strong a bolt. There are two stronger/heat-treated grades above this, 10.9 and 12.9.
Luckily, I own a screw company...
