Nope no rubbing at all. They fit just fine under the wheel wells.

Neal can you be more specific on what profile you are using and diameter? Ernie, are you experiencing any issues with rubbing with the tire sizes you have chosen?

Thanks guys!

I have 225x45x17's on the front and 285x45x17's on the rear. If you have a Costco in your area, they have Z-rated Bridgestones for $195 each.

No, I did not buy a 348 :-), but need some help for a friend. We searched the archives, and gave up. He needs tires for a 94' 348 spider with stock wheels. He has found that a couple of tire like Bridgestone S03's and Michelin Pilot Sports are not made in the stock sizes. People are putting these on 348's, so what sizes do you upgrade to? Thanks, he will be watching your posts.
