lowered the elco and the tires rub terrible

[L67ss]

What size tires on the rallyes?

iroc rims came in two different off sets per vehicle. the front rims (yes they are labeled front and rear on the inside spoke) have a 0 offset. while the rears have a 16mm positive off set, meaning they sit in (closer to the frame) 16mm or 5/8". which rims are on the front? if you have a set of "rear" rims, try one on the front. but i'll warn you now, "rear" rims on the front may rub on the tie rods.

I run 3rd gen "rears" in front on my cars and run 255/50R16's. I filed the tie rod corners round with a grinder for wheel clearance and that worked.

225/60R16's are a little taller than stock. 235/55R16's might be a better choice.

50 series or smaller for 16inch wheels won't rub unless your suspension is messed up. I run 225/50/16 on my el camino with no rubbing.

I trimmed my inner fenders about 3-4" in from the lip. Actually, it clearances itself. Then, I rolled the lip with a hammer. Have you driven it? I was bottoming the front tires against the tops of the fenderwells. You may have to trim the inner fenders, too.

A little update . tonight I ditched the inner fenders. No rub until it turns then it hits,bad.i tried some 15x7 rallies I had. No rub. So there is my answer I guess. Anyone want to buy some iroc wheels?

You got rid of your inner fenders? Seems like extreme overkill and a lot of work. You should've just went back to stock spindles and forgot about your nose rubbing along the ground.

Good enough:
