Clearence issues, any ideas?
I have a 4th gen. I recently got G35 wheels with their stock tires on my car. Over the past few weeks I noticed that the rear tires have strips coming off. At first I thought it was becasue I was hitting curbs or something. Today I found out its because the side of the tire rubs against the inside of the fenders/wheel well when I turn too sharply or hit deep potholes since the G35 wheels are wider and stick out more. I also have Eibach springs all around and my struts are shot. I have brand new KYB AGX's that I will install in the next week or so. Do you guys think that will fix the problem? Should I put the stock springs back on? If not, any ideas? I'd really hate to have to part with the G35 wheels...

If you don't have the $$$ for new tires, you may want to get springs that don't drop as dar, like Tein H-Techs or even H&Rs.
That is cheaper than tires, and you can sell the Eibachs.

Well after I installed AGX's and switched the fronts with the rears the problem went away, at least for now. When I get new tires I'll get 235/40 all around, but for now the fronts are a bit wider than the rears, hardly noticable.
Thanks for everyones help.
