Damn! :(

So I got my tires put on - Goodyear Eagle LS 225/60-16

THe back left (only ) is fuggin rubbing when i go over dips and make sharp/quick right turns

What's rubbing? Is it harmful?
That's the only side i hear it coming from...

Should I:

*leave em
*see if i can trade the guy back and buy a diff. size from him (i.e. 215/60 or 205/60
*get two smaller ones for just the back and leave the front?

thanks

Hey Tommy. maybe you are just rubbing against the plastic bumper tab inside the rear wheel well. Its the little piece of plastic at the end of the plastic bumper where it meets up with the sheet metal of the rear quarter panel. See is grinding it down gets rid of the problem, it sounds like its minor rubbing and it should work. If you dont do it it can gouge the sidewall of your tire a little bit before wearing itself out.
