Default will 8 inch slicks rub my crx spindles

I have a crx with gsr rims and I want to know if I can run 8 inch slicks without rubbing the spindle, or do I need a spacer or rim with a better offset?

please only reply if you know for sure

thanks

8 inch slicks on your GSRs? They "should" be fine but you may want to wait for other answers

it's not whether they fit on the rims, it's whether or not the slicks on the gsr rims(no offset) will rub the spindle. do I need spacers, and or offset rims to move them further out from the spindle. My 205 radials are around an inch from the spindle.

Ah, you mean Knuckle. not spindle. Before someone gives you crap about it. FWD has a spindle on the rear weals (where the wheel bearings are) but not on the front.

I have 13x8x22 slicks and there appears to be a little rubbing on the knuckle. I'm using Lenso's too. With the GSR's, I think you may run into some rubbing issues.
