Default Rubbing noise on hard cornering with 205/50 15 on Heliums!!

Anybody else running that tire size with aftermarket wheels? I've got a slight drop-Neuspeed sport springs and Tokico Blue- and when I push the car hard in the corner it sounds like it's rubbing on the fenders. Do I have to roll my fenders?

well first look where it is rubbing. are the tires marked up on the outside? if so then roll the fenders. if no look at the undercoating on the inside and see if its rubbing there.

I have the same wheels but I have 205/50/15 hoosier r comp tires on them. they rub very slightly over large bumps, but with 205/50 street tires which are much more narrow I dont have problems

I have heliums and 205/50/15 Nitto NeoGen's and no rub issues...they run about as wide as the 615's do, and I haven't had any problems.....I have about a finger and a half gap too....
