Hello people, just wondering if their is anything i can do to solve this porblem other than raising my car back up. The last thing i want to do is get new springs. Anyways i have Koni yellows with H&r's and since about 2 weeks ago i guess my springs and shocks have settled more (maybe from the cold weather) and now whenever i break or anything puts more weight or shifts the weight of the car to the front the tires rub on the wheel wells. Is there anything i can do? i checked out the wheel well and all the clips were intact so its not like anything is loose. Can i cut out a portion of the plastic wheel well to make the rubbing stop? Im hoping when i put my summers on i wont have this problem. Any suggestions my friends?

 

nope nothing u can do. Maybe get some low pro tires, but thats about it. I'm on my second set and need to buy new ones once again.

 

^^ i think we should find a group buy for fender liners....burned the ---- out of mine last year...basically zip tied now so it doesnt flap in the wind

dan i think u can push the fender tabs up and u will gain a bit more...but not much maybe a cm or 2... im sure ur summers will be fine...my snow tires look more tucked then my summers...

 

If you're on Koni yellows, you might try going to the upper spring perch. My Front's are DC koni yellow with neuspeed race, and on the lower perch I couldn't turn my wheels anywhere close to full lock. like 1/2 a turn and I'd begin to rub. Upper perch gives you about an extra inch. Here's some pics from wed/thurs when it was lower than fuzzy:


the red one is @ stock height... notice the wheelgap


notice how much tire tuck and the insane camber (despite camber kit & itr lca's)

 

Just stiffen up the suspension

 

Then I got fed up with making 30-pt turns, and went to the upper perch on fri after work. just ran out and took a couple:





sorry about the crappy camera phone pics, but it should be obvious that the wheels can now turn without rubbing and the outrageous camber is now back in spec..

Good luck ^^

 

looks alot better raised. it just looked gay before
