The guy I bought my 17's off of had 3" up front and had the wheels backspaced
to that spec. When I bought them, I had them on for a couple weeks without
lowering it. There was clearly no way I could rub at full lock in either
direction. I didn't break out the tape measure but I could slide my hand
through there. After I put the apindles up front it came out just like he
said it would "very light rubbing on the drivers side when turning right." It
is so light that I cannot tell, I only know it because of the slight smooth
spot around the tire from navigating parking lots etc.
