You need to expect great joy and happiness. Side effects also include the emptying of your wallet on modifications (mods or bombs), consistant grinning from ear to ear and your friends being jealous of the amount of torque, horsepower and fuel mileage. congratulations and we need pictures as soon as they are available.

I bet you will rub at full lock, maybe sooner, but I think you will be ok cause that crazy flame tread is realtively rounded on the corners...
