285's are kinda big for the front...I'm sure it will rub a little on the liner and the fender lip...How wide is the 18" wheel?...Do you know the offset?....

yes, the fronts are 18x9's and already have 285's! im buying them off this guy and he has a 96-98 gt but he said he didnt have a problem with the tires on his car, but im not sure if his car was lowered or not! anyways if it does rub too much i have a friend with some 245's and 275's that i might be able to trade for those 285's! thanks alot guys!!! jon
