Default another tire question
I,m about to order some tires I think i will be going with firestone Indy 500. 255/60/15. Some people say this size might rub while turning is that a big deal or not really. Id go with 245/60/15 in front than i have to go with bf goodrich. but i really want the firestones. Please give some advice. Thanks.

I currently have 255/60-15's all around (Goodyear Eagle ST's). The only time my tires rub is a hard-lock turn (e.g. turning tight into a parking space). No other issues.
