Will KYB's AGX shocks help?
 
First, Thanks Boone for your advice..
Just want to get other opinions as well...

I have a 04 Max that I just added rims and tires.. However, I'm experiencing some rubbing. Everyone I ask is kinda surprised at this... I was assured these would fit with no issues.. No rubbing while normal driving, however, if I hit a bumb, then you can hear it... I have yet to carry passagers - I know it will only be worst. Any advice or thoughts would be appreciated...

This is all I have on it.. Do you think adding the shock would make a difference, or should I put the original springs back on the rear only, or will I need the shocks either way?

Did you add springs at the same time as the new rims? And how do the rolling diameters of your old and new tires compare?

it's a good practice to install aftermarket struts while you are installing springs. Only way you won't rub is to go back to OEM springs or roll your fenders.

Maybe just a small wheel spacer to bring the inside edge of the tire out beyond the springs. If that is where it is rubbing.

I had the Eibach springs on for about a year. I dunno about the rolling diameter comparison.. Not sure how to do this...

Yeah, I will probably put the original springs back on. Thanks for the advice. Do you think I need the aftermarket shocks in the rear as well?

I always install aftermarket struts along w/ my springs; both front and back.
