I noticed on both sides of the car that the rear brake line is really close to the turning rear wheel.I put the new rims on to see if everything would fit and now it's even closer.I went from 3/4" to 1/2" clearance due to the slight difference in the rims.Also the clearance is really close on the front fender and the tire on the top underside. The front tire size is stock so I guess that's just the way it is.I don't think these cars are made to drive on a country road. |

The front fender will bounce at the same time as the tire. I have never had one rub. |

You could smell it for weeks and almost impossible to clean up the mess. This message has been edited by Gort on 10-24-2013 at 07:15 PM |

I hit a plastic grocery bag on the Xway and you could still smell it slightly about a year later, in the Prowler. |

The rear rim is 1/2" more narrow than stock.Michelin requires 9.5 inch rim to keep the 30k mile warranty (Ferrari orginal equipment). Stay tuned.
