Moog 5660 springs in Malibu wagon

The only issue I have is the right tire *just* kisses the very bottom of the front of the wheel opening where it rolls under when turning in reverse. I intend to send the car for alignment and ask them to set caster to the max spec to coax the tire back just a hair.

I ran the same wheel/tire on a Bonneville wagon and had no issues other than the rubbing the liner at the top outside because the springs were old and weak. I believe the Bonneville and GP have very similar wheel openings, which are more of a round radius at the lower portion than the Chevrolets, which are somewhat square in overall shape. I presume there was enough clearance on the Bonneville due to the slightly larger space between the tire and fender to avoid catching the fender.
 
Thanks for the reply. I really appreciate it. I think I may have gone a smidge too big with 235/60/16s. Time will tell. Probably not this year though.
