problem wit 17" rims
 

i recently purchase a set of rims and rubber 205/40/17 the problem is that the tires on the back(the passenger side) is rubbing against the fenders. i already change the shocks but it didn't matter. what the hell is wrong, this is pissin me off

you might need to flare the inside of the well a little.

A buddy of mine did that when he changed rims and his new tires were rubbing.

He flared them underneath with a screw driver and said that there is a kit or something that you can get that will clean up the flare

you don't want to "flar" the well you want to "roll"the well

take a bat and rrrrrroll up the rrrrrim

You may not need to roll them... in the fender...lok for a small tab of metal... this may be your only problem...I had the same thing happen to me when I was running 17's but it wasn't the fender...it was a small bit of metal within hte wheel well...

Camber Kit??

he would have to increase negative camber to remove this problem... but that just introduces a new one...

but it would help with cornering......:nods:

how low is the back of the car????

i got a 2" drop back there and im running 17" with like an 1.5" of tire and i don't rub in the back but in the front i only rub when i cornner hard or am going down a steep hill and turning...

P.S.
my Wheels are TUCKED all the way around...
