I just bought new tires, 225/50/16 Pirelli P-zero Neros. Great tires, but they're rubbing on the front strut housing. The tires are mounted on the E38 BBS 16x8 wheels, et23.
Now, what I want to know is if its safe to drive around (highway included) on them eventhough they rub on the housing? If not, are they going to overheat on the rubbing part and actually explode? Also, if I need spacers (i'm sure i do), where can I get them and what size do I need? Anyone here that could get them cheaper than I would be able to online? Thanks a lot.

BTW, this is on an 86 535i.
Mods: The only reason I put it here was because I needed a quick answer, and people check this forum more than the tech forum.
