i have srt wheels on stock 01 rt suspension it rubbed really bad and i got 1/4 inch spacers still rubbed a hair then i smashed on the perches with a big adjustable wrench and voala its all better now but i am rolling stock tire size KDW if you got smaller tires then the modern performance spacers should work with no smashing of perches but you know trial and error just dont drive far just role and see if there is rubbing.

I have to agree w/ you guys. Yes, this question has been asked a million times by now, but some people are not familar w/ forums and more specifically this one. If you offend them in the first few posts that they make, thats going to make them leave, and tell people not to come here. EXact opposite of what we want. And try to keep things on topic please.

Just like dblsg said in the first response...you can either get srt struts (pretty cheap off any srt owner on srt forums, or even here, or the other.org), aftermarket struts, Coilovers (true coilovers, im not sure about the ones on ebay like dropzones) , and a 40 series tire.
