275/35/18 bridgestone and 305/3518 toyo r888. Lowered on eibach prokit. No rubbing with low profile irs bolts.

That’s funny I have the same setup and the tire has hit the fender before. Maybe it’s because of the irs bolt? It’s not rubbing the bolt though it’s touching the top of the fender and scraping against the tire. It did it once on my first 3 hour drive home with it last weekend. I posted on what to do. Roll fenders (can’t do myself lol) uncle said it’s like 2k at body shop so screw that. Or Switch the eibach pro springs back to stock or a different set? Or would adding new ISO’s on? Or switch tires to 295’s. It’s 305/35/18 now. It rides great and isn’t a big deal but would like to address it if it’s not difficult. Thanks

I run a 275 35 18 and R888 315 30 18 lowered on eibach springs 1 iso removed from the rear both from the front. I still have the stock IRS bolt and I have not rubbed once yet. The bolt will hit if you jack the rear end up and push down on the tire, but it is barely so I didn't replace it.

so removing the iso will help? I thought having them would help it not rub lol I was backwards lol. Mine rubs on a 305/35 from time to time

Here is mine with F-275/35/18 Nitto N555 G2's and R-315/30/18 Nitto NT-01. I have H&R race springs with iso's and a MM 1/4" spacer. I rolled the fenders due to spacer, but does not rub without the spacer.

It’s not 2K to roll renders. Most shops do it for $150-250. Call around.

Removing the ISO’s will lower the car more and rub more. Roll the fenders and hope for the best. It is usually the rim offset is why they rub. If it was centered between the fender and irs bolt, it would clear.

I use to run Saleen wheels, never rubbed, with the same tire and different rims, my car will rub once in a while. My fenders are rolled and does no damage to the tires. You need to be careful of the screw holding the rear bumper, that is usually what chews tires up from rubbing. That is on really low cars or ones with very big (28”) etc.

That's really interesting, I am considering a similar setup. My vert is also on H&R Race with all isos in, but no rolled fenders. Do you think the NT01 315s will fit without rolling fenders or spacers? How's your traction? I'm on a gen 2 TVS, 620rwhp and the 555G2s I have out back now are just terrible.

Don't forget Nittos run a little small...

The old ones did. The G2's are on the wide side. I had a 315 G2 sitting next to my 315 555R and even my wife saw the difference between the two regarding the width. And she was standing across the garage.

I don't know if the 555RII's are the same.

My NT05R's were noticeably smaller than my 555 G2's

Were the NT05R's the same generation as the old school 555's? I never ran them on my car.

I think they are both this gen. NT05's didn't exist back then.
Wish they made a 315/40-17

Yes, they should fit without a spacer and not rub assuming you have the low pro bolt from MM or FTBR. I had the NT-05R's on the back before and they looked skinny with 315's compared to the NT-01's. Traction is great in 2nd gear and up even when stabbing the throttle it may slip for a sec and then hook. First gear is tricky with 625 whp

Ordered the low profile bolts and will have a shop roll the fenders. I am still on 18x10s in the rear so I stuck with the 295/35/18 NT05s for now. If I get some 10.5 or 11" wheels I'll move to 315s in the rear.

275/35/18 front with 315/30 rear...how does it look?
