I checked that and there is no rubbing. Plus I have had this wheel/tire, shock/spring combo on the car for over 50,000 miles now. The only thing different is the adjustable rear camber do dads.

I am going to assume it is just that the tires are past their prime and the new set will do better. I plan to keep a close watch on the wear of my new set plus I am going to go back to rotating them front to rear.

I about 22,000 miles from this set versus 28,000 miles from my last set of SP8000's. I think the extra wear is probably a result of:
1. Not rotating my tires.
2. The extra power from the DA Supercharger and I do tend to like to kick the tail out on occasion.

Thanks,
Steve M.
