Just wondering here.  I know that most of these setups (including my Griggs) move the wheels forward a bit.  i have rubbing problems with stock size tires!  Any fix for this??

Here is a pic of my car with an 87 Fox K-memeber and TC control arms. Stock 225 tires would rub a little and stick out. The pic shows the tires I ended up running. 215/60/16 in front and 235/55/16 in back.

Which is what my Griggs setup is.

I was hoping the the CC plates would help a bit, but at least they will allow me to get the camber correct so I don't wear off the outside edges of any more tires. :hick:

arms and they are fine. I 17x9 wheels with 245 tires the car is down 1 inch and have no tire rub except if i hit a dip on a turn at
speed.
