more information is needed. Depends on wheel offset and drop if any. At stock height and conservative offsets it won't rub. That is the most popular size to run in the front for most g coupes, so it shouldn't be a problem

I'm a fan of Rays, but I hate the fact that numerous manufacturers feel the need to put a celeb front man to market and pitch their products instead of resting on the quality and effectiveness of it's products.

For example, Tyson Beckford markets his own line of SUV rims backed by Pirelli. One thought, "What does Tyson know about rims that we don't?" To him, it's just another photo shoot, name association, and media junket. Blah!

I believe Funkmaster Flex has something similar going on as well. Stupid...

This only dilutes the endorsements other more pertinent figures such as Roland James (from drag fame), Fitipaldi, and others put on automotive products. Maybe not!

Then again, maybe it just opens up the kimono to reveal how stupid celeb endorsements are in selling products to uneducated zombie masses who are willing to take the word of Tyson Beckford's technical and aesthetic punditry on rims. Maybe it just showcases how celebs are willing to sell out their name to collect an easy check.

Bottom line: I think it's lame!!! Then again, I don't have a 7 figure endorsement deal pushing some company's product so maybe I'm just jealous.
