how much tire clearance?
How much tire clearance is needed between the inner side of the tire and the inner wheel well on the back? I measured 5/16" with my new set up.
specifics:
'02 C5
autox only, C6Z06 shocks, C6Z51 sways, lowered on stock bolts, C5Z06 rims, R888 335/30/18's
thanks

I use 3/8" spacer, longer ARP studs, and open ended hardened lug nuts.
18x12 or 18x13 rear rim, and 18x335/30 tires. The tire side wall still flexs and rubs the inner wheel well liner.
