He said without the tires there was less than the space of his fingers from the wheel to the column. He said that with tires it would be right up against the column. It may rub on the column. I will be using the stock tires 225 fronts / 255 rears.
From reading the treads, it should fit. Was he being too conservative? Should I just go back and have him install it?

hmm, those numbers should fit just fine.. I'm curious as to what he means by columns ? does he mean the shock absorbers ? PS. a 255 tire isnt rreally any bit wider then a 9.5" wide wheel.
I personally think that wheel guy doesnt know what he is talking about
keep us updated on what happens !
