the only part that ever really causes a problem with tires rubbing is the spring perch on the strut....but as long as the tires arent too tall then you wont have a problem...no matter how low the car is...

well I plan on getting the srt rims in a few weeks from a friend in ohio and my car will be lowered roughly 1.6" so would I be safe getting 215 or should I just stick with 205's? Either way it doesnt matter cause my bro works at tire discounters so I get a deal but I was just wondering cause I wouldnt mind having the extra meat on the tires

the srt4 rims are very narrow so i would actually suggest getting 205's......i was looking at mine today and i think im just gonna stick with them instead of the 215's
