I assuming since 295/40 fit stock 21s 285/45 should be fine? Lionharts, No spacers.

Sweet, thanks for the response the digging ive been doing has come up with mixed answers, I assumed they would but Ive heard others say they will rub the struts if not using spacers, i looked in the wheel well yesterday and it looks like it should be enough room.

Got the 285s LH Fives installed yesterday no rub at all, its close to the strut tower but not too much to worry about, full lock no rubbing, thanks again for the help!

Hey everyone, would the 295/40 lionharts fit without wheel spacers? I am getting close to 40k on the stock tires and wanted more width without spacers.
