Re: Looking for advice

I had the same issue when I bought my 93. Your front tires, assuming you are running a stock height tire are just too big and scrub on top of the fender wheels.

What I did was put 215/70 tires on the front. They are 2" smaller dia and very close in width to stock. Then I added 1" spacer under the front springs, lifting it 1". If you have a 2" drop spring you could go with a 1" drop spring instead. You end up with same ride height and it fixes all the rubbing issues.

Just save the front tires and put them on the rear when you wear out the ones on it now.

It got to the point I would just cringe when I saw a big bump in the road anticipating the scrubbing sound of the tire hitting the fender wells and I had to do something and came up with this. It's been 3+ years now and no issues what so ever. Plus I think the smaller tires look better on the front but that is personal opinion.
