please help with tire

Hi guys! I just bought a 91 camaro rs with fulda extremo 245/50zr/16 on z28 rims and when I'm going slowly, the tire touch the inside of the fender. Is this normal, because I saw a couple guys here with 265 and they say that it fits.
Thanks in advance!

sounds like something is broken, if its the front, the plastic lines may just be loose and rubbing on the tire.

Re: please help with tire

Are the front wheels on the front & rear wheels on the rear?

The backspacing is different on the factory 16" & yeah...Rears on the front will rub when turning. Not a good thing.

Pull the wheels off & read the back. They will read FRONT or REAR.
