On some 16" and 17" front wheel/tire combos, you'll also find rubbing on 
certain parts of the inner fender panels, the wiper motor shield, the cowl 
drain tubes, and if you've also increased caster, the brake hoses. The rubbing 
may be worse on the right than the left as many Panteras are not perfectly 
symmetric. As Michael said, it will be noticable in sharp turns- more so if 
there are also bumps in the turn.
All the above are fixable with some effort; no real cost except your own 
labor, assuming you know what you're doing....   As Grampa said- there are 
people out there who can break an anvil with a wooden mallet! Cheers- J Deryke
