Interesting that you have rubbing in front. I have a '95 Aero with B&G springs/Konis and 225-50 Kumho MX. I trimmed about .25" from the inside of the rear fender trim on both sides, and trimmed down a few of the bolts that hold the trim onto the fender. Interestingly enough when I did a trackday a few weeks ago, the left rear only rubbed some at the back of the fender trim. Apparently the rear axle moves side to side somewhat under hard cornering; in a picture I have you can see the right rear is pretty far into the wheelwell due to body roll and G's. Obviously this wouldn't be an issue driving on the street. I trimmed off a bit more in that area today when putting my SAS rear bar on.
I didn't have any rubbing in front, other than while at full lock parking.
