I just mounted a new set of wheels that put the tires a tad over an 1/8" away from the leaf spring.I shouldnt have any issues right?




I dunno about that!
Before I inboarded the springs, I had a little under 1/4" clearance between the tire and the leaf spring.
Basically, it cleared....as long as the car went dead straight. Any getting out of the groove and having the car go squirrelly and they would hit...and pretty good at that!!
I'd shoot for 3/8" minimum...and maybe a 1/2" as previously suggested.
If you can, pick up a quality 1/4" wheel spacer kit (I said QUALITY....no cast aluminum crap).
Just check your wheel stud length.
