I have a 91 legacy ss with five spoke wrx wheels. i just put new tires on and the back ones especially, are rubbing on the struts. The tires are 205/55 r16. Are these too big? What's best option? Thanks in advance

That's exactly what I'm running and yes it rubs a little, but you don't need to worry it mainly just polished a shiny spot on the strut.
90-91 had lower spring perches than 92-94 that's why they also are lower to the ground.

Are they rubbing against the strut perch or the side of the strut body?
