My mate had some 215's on the back of his about 2 months ago, cant remember the make, but they still rub now when theres a bit of weight in the back or he corners hard.
Rear arches are folded aswell

He does'nt use his LSD for what it's made for Marc :? :wink:

Depend's on how much it's lowered on the back but i had that size before i went back to 15's and they were fine on the rear, lowered at 40mm.

I've dug out the spring's mate, let me know when you want them :thumb:
