Exhaust interference with 17x10.5 Wheels?

DanTheMan · January 30th, 2008, 07:43 PM

ok i was planning on getting some 03 machined cobra wheels, if I get the 10.5" rear will I have a problem with the rear exit exhaust? I notice alot of dd guys dumping their exhaust. btw, i'll be running 315 rear tires if that helps.

You won't have a problem with it. I had some 17X10.5 Bullitts with 315s on mine. Never had a problem with any rubbing. I now have 18X10 FR500s with 295s in the back and still have plenty of exhaust clearance.

no problems with mine 10.5 dd with 315 eagle f1s I almost went 335 so you will have no problem. and if for some odd reason you do just buy a spacer

stroker408 · January 31st, 2008, 05:38 PM

i got what you want they fit
17x10.5 / 315/35/17 nittos

they should clear the top irs bolt too.they only hit if you got a 315 tire with a rim saver made into the tire, nitto 315 dont have the rim saver.
i got solid axle. btw.
