im running the 295/50-15,

you will need to cut the bump stops, and a little more trimming. Having a BFH will help with the process too.

Mine dont rub on the lip. I have 15x10 rims with a 6.5 backspace. What are your rim specs?

you could always roll the lip. i know that eastwood sells atool for that. I had my bodyman hammer and dolly mine when it went into paint, just in case i went wider at a later date

If the wheels are an honest 295 width, stock 8" wide GTA wheels are going to be way too narrow for them. I would want a 9" or 9.5" wide wheel with those rollers.
