You MAY rub in the rear, I did slightly with the Hoosier R6's on the trailing arm and the exhaust shield, BUT, they were about 5lbs under inflated, they never really got hot enough, the fronts did though
Stock fenders up front? I guess the extra diameter buys you a lot of space on the inside. I've got 16x8 +32 RPF1's up front with Stance GR+ coilovers and with a puny 225 tire (Toyo T1R) I was rubbing the spring perch (small spacer fixed that problem). To make matters worse I was also catching the inside lip on the fender (more camber + fender roll fixed that one). I suppose the extra inch in wheel radius could buy you ~4 mm on the inside but given my experience I have no idea how to account for the extra ~8 mm on the outside. What was the front camber?
