Any "movement" or "flex" of the suspension geometry is a bad thing. 15x7 -> you can run 195/50/15 or 205/50/15. More of a bear to install correctly, but well worth it. Over 3/8" of clearance everywhere? Impossible? Yes, turned out the darn rubber bushings flexed enough to allow the A-arms to move around on the bushings and allow the wheel to touch! Changed all these to Nylatron with SS sleeves and never looked back. I remember thinking the Rota's looked better and were lighter, maybe more colors too, don't remember how price compared though.

My first attempt at 15x7 resulting in some rubbing during hard driving and while backing up with a sharp turn over a bump.
