but if everything is pretty "stock" no, it should not rub anywhere... check out Pete's install thread.. 3

I love my Fabspeeds. My neighbors, not so much.

Go through a tunnel in third gear with the windows down!

I ve got 18 inch wheels with 225 in the front and 285 in the back. I am more concerned about the front rubbing.

Congrats, you will be delighted with the transformation..great choice...
Enusre you get a proper alignment, and correct X74 installation, as the front mounting holes need some adjustment to optimize camber.

Speaking from expereince as i have the X74 and Fabspeed exahust for some time

You will have no problem with that wheel/tire combination.

Reading through this just gets me giddy all over again. You are gonna love it. I have 235's up front with 295's on the rears (all 18's) with no issue.

Enjoy!
