iv got 17" et 45 karns
and lowered by 60 mm

And it now rubs like hell on the rears with 1 passenger

I believe the axel is not in the centre of the car and is closer to the near side. Has any one else had this problem or know if it can be adjusted

I am going to get the psg2 arches so I can bend the offending arch away from the tyre unless I can move the axel back to the centre

I cant camber because the other side rubs very slightly on the inside because of axel this would only worsen the problem


thanks

mate i have the same problem, is just a case of grinding and bending as much of the arch away as possible, ive even had 2 cut the plastic bit away on mine and passenger side STILL rubs, but i can go 20mm further on the drivers side and it dont catch at all

ive heard that there is 8 spot welds on the back of the drum which can be removed also, or u can get the wheel machined (2mm) to make it sit inwards better

also fit uprated shocks which dont compress as much
