22"s w/ lower suspension question guys!

I have 295/25/22 and 255/30/22 on my car. Can I go up any higher without rubbing? I have the KW's also. Wanting alittle more rubber between the rims and road.

I'm running the same tire combo with KW's and my car is lowered all the way down in the rear and the front has barely any gap.

I think that he means up higher in tire size. I don't know the sizes, but there is a meatier combo for the 22x9 and 22x10 wheels.

255/35 & 285/30 Toyo Proxes will give you a little more sidewall with no rubbing.

265/35 & 295/30 may rub, but you could just roll the fenders. The hight of 295/30 is identical with stock SRT.

With 265/35 & 305/30, you will definitely have to roll the fenders.

Thanks guys for the advice. I had my passenger side rear rub w/ 295/25/22 Michelins PS2. I rolled the fenders and noticed some rubbing on the inner plastic well. Maybe I have my KW's lowered abit too low?

All I know is that your wheels are WAY at the top of my list. I have a Silver CSRT and I love the look of yours.

Off topic, but do you know that they weigh per wheel?

I'm running the same setup as you are, 255/30-22's and 295/25-22 with the same I-Forged rims and have no rubbing problems. I have been planning on installing 265/35-22's and 295/30-22's soon. I am very interested in how this works out for you.
