Yep. That's the case when I tried a 17x8" 4.5 BS with a 245-45-17 tire on my '69. I have Hotchkis front springs, button head hardware on the fender trim and lots of negative camber. Mine rubs slightly on the trailing edge of the driver's side fender while turning out of the driveway and hard right turns.
