Whats the problem with the rear specifically?
I dare guess they're hitting the trailing arm in which case you need spaced drums so
they clear.

Tyre choice is critical as you'll need the lowest profile (50 series I think) you can get . Depending on the wheels offset you may need to fit the cooper s/spacered drums but apart from that there shouldn't be any other problems .
