help needed on rims fitmet

i just got me a pair of sevas s55's and im trying to put them on without rubbing. the back is a 20x10 with a 275/30 tire on them, my question is what exactly do i need to tell the rim shop to do. theyve already rolled it but on bumps or dips the rear right still rubs. o yeah im dropped on comptech springs. I promise if someone helps me out I WILL POST PICS. lol

Holy crap. 20x10 RIM! Talk to "wps007" Hes got the thread about the widest rear tire... IMO hes got the most experience doing what others said couldn't be done...

OH YEAH DO U HAVE MUD FLAPS???? Cuz if you look closely, thats where you are probably rubbing. Thats where I was rubbing... on the inside of the mudflap.

Few questions:

Are you dropped?
Do you have a camber kit installed?

Comment:
Your problem lies on your tire size... You need to put a 255/30/20 on the 20x10 wheels...

^ 255/30/20... with a fender roll should do the trick... also, you may have to trim your rear aspec kit

Dropped on comptechs with no camber kit, light rolling done at home. But most likely as all of you say i need to change my tire to a 255/30. What do you suggest for the front? I have 225/30 right now...maybe 235 or 245 even? No rubbing now but it just looks like a small ass tire.

245/30/20 would do the trick with no issues...

I actually had 245/35 when I had a set of Sevas installed... just cut the sidewalls up with the front fender little lip (right before the bumper connection)... nothing major...

your problem is that you got rims too big for the freaking car. now if you don't want them to rub, pull the fenders but its gonna cost you

Did you just roll the fenders more and didn't change the tires????

Do you have an ASPEC lip kit installed???

My fenders are fully FULLY rolled. Yes i do have an aspec kit. they also put some type of holders between my rear springs i guess to reduce the bounce.
