whoa, i think i got what your saying but dayum. Your one long run on sentance just gave me a headache as if i read a full page of kit-fox's ramblings.

No, you probably wont rub with 17's with eibachs, with the appropriate tires of coarse (since they'll be the same overall size as stock)

but good god, take some time next time you post....

mayb you should fix the second one. lol joke.gif

but all in all, the simplest way to remember how to avoid tire rubbing is this, if you add 1 inch of rim you have to remove an inch in the tire wall.

For example, if you go from a 15" rim to 17", the wall of your tires would be 2" shorter. That way, the overall size of your tires will take up the same amount of space. Hope this makes sense bud.
