   i think they will rub on full lock, and more with a full car.
   
   and if you are getting 17" then i hope you will lower it but then that will increase your rubbing..
   
   not worth it unless you have a kitted sax imo

    on 15s or 17s?
    
    17s = yes lol
    
    15s you can get away with but will always look better lower
