I've read on nastyz28 that peoples tires will hit the sway bar in some cases. Lots of fitment info there for our 2nd gens.

Yes, this depends on the car. Everyone is different.

Depends on your alignment too. A lot of caster will put your tire into the rear of the wheel well and if you are riding low your camber will put your tire into the outer edge of the fender well and the two well to fender bolt heads.

Thanks. I just replaced any of the bolts in play actually with button heads to help in case of rubbing.

But looking at where I'm set up, about an inch above my tire, I think I should be ok as my wheels and tires aren't huge.
