Small update! We put seafoam in his car; his idle RPMS went from stuttering from 600-700 to below 500 @ around 400 and it does not stutter at all! Seafoam is amazing. Gotta put it in my car next!

I don't want to trimm at all really and im afraid that im just gonna get alot of rubbing.

if your running stock offset wheels then most likely yes there will be rubbin. but your gonna rub regardless at full turn on your control arms. 10.50 is as wide as i'd go with stock wheels. i would run stock tires(even if it looks funny) til you get new wheels. if your gonna wheel a lot get steel cause aluminum gets gouged easy. I think the cheapo steel wheels are called wagon wheels.

these are what i've got on my 35x12.50's and 0 rubbin. they are like 50-60 a piece? less than the tires cost.

true its trimmed but i meant no rubbin while turning and it doesn't even reach fender because of bump stops so it really didn't need the trimming. just kinda did it anyways.
