front will rub the inner fender lip until it gets flattened, (first bump should do it) then it's good to go. I had that setup for one year. no probs at all. loved the look. check out my cardomain page in my sig. those are the same size

so you're telling me that it was already rolled all along...?someone with stock wheels and no aftermarket rims verify this please.

I assumed it got rolled because of my bigger 245 tires and +35 offset.

this is what it looks like btw

front

rear
