Advice needed: I am going to swap in the H&R springs and need to swap out my 215/45-17's. Should I go with the 205 or 215 in the 40 profile? I don't want any rubbing issues and I'd like to get the rear end a little looser.

Thanks,

Gary

Look up user "worldchallange7" on this site. He has H&R springs and runs 215-40-17 Kuhmo mx's. I think he said no rub problems.

I too have heard that 215/40 will fit when lowered with no issues.
