I had the 245/35/20 setup on my MRR HR3s and i was rubbing then but i havent gotten the chance to mount the CV-1s yet on my car so idk if i will rub but im hoping i dont with this tire size plus on my HR-3s the wheel width was 8.5 where as the CV-1s are 9s so idk yet and am hoping to not rub on the front.

how bad was the rubbing when you had the HR3s? i went on an offset calculator website and the difference is very little compared to the CV1. the CV1's would only stick out further by 9mm compared to the HR3s...

It was rubbing even before i lowered it like when i turned the wheel completely it used to rub the fender liner and that caused it to make holes in them plus i was suggested by another CL member that use the heat gun and cave it in a little but it didnt resolve the problem some told me take the liner out completely which im not ready to do so now i have 2 small holes in the liners. i still havent checked out if the CV1s would rub or not in the front where as for the rear i know i would need a fender roll for the timing.
