well here's the story...
i had 235/35/19's on the car
i was running srt4 struts&springs
only issue was rear inner sidewall was rubbing the control arm, fixed that with a 5mm spacer
new problem. intstalled the air ride, went to put the wheels on the car only to realize that now the front, not the back, has the problem
the tire is hitting the front strut bag (yes the bag itself) and easystreet.com told me when i ordered it that it was garenteed to fit. now i'm thinking, even if i go 215/35/19 it still won't clear it because that takes 20mm off the total size and only 10mm off the inner sidewall. i put a 10mm spacer to test fit the car and it still rubbed. my height shouldn't be a factor because stock srt4 wheels/tires are only a little smaller then my 19's. but i'll bet even money that no matter what i do with the strut bags i have now, its still going to rub...
i'm thinking that the only way its going to fit is put the same kind of struts i have on the rear onto the front now
here is what i'm working with:
front:
Rear:

pm krakstar hes got bags and 19s i think im not 100 percent sure but i think hes running the same kind of air ride set up he might have better details. i dont think he has any rubbing issues or if he did he addressed them. thats all i got for now cause if you tried spacers and different size tires the i dunno whats left unless you decide to try and go real custom and position your struts in more like you would have to weld your strut hole closed and weld a new plate on to locate it in more but i dont think it will be worth the effort for it to possibly not work try krakstar. hes a cool guy will help you out if he can!

different spacers with a widebody kit sounds like a good fix to me:-p
