Default Just bought 17 x 9 XD SPY rims... Few questions..

These rims are 17 x 9 with a -12 offset. I think thats a 4.59" BS.I have 305/65/17 KM2's. I was wondering if anyone knows if this is going to rub and if so, what would be a good fix? Would a leveling kit work?

Id say they wont rub with stock suspension. Might rub a little in the rear if you have beefy extended sway bar links. An easy fix would be to use wheel spacers, but i dont think youll come to that;

if you disconnect your sway bars they will rub in the front for sure! i have slightly smaller tires then that and disconected the front sway bar when off roading and went over some tricky spots and had the wheel right up in the stock fender

I have them and they do not rub at all. But I have 35 inch tires and 2.5 in lift.
