anyone else ever had this happen? I got new wheels, 15x6.5 with 204/50 15s and I get fender rub on hard fast left turns...never had it on the right. I can see the spot where the tire touches on the inside of the fender lip. time to roll the fenders??

 

Yeah that happens to me on my front passenger side.....the damn screw that holds up the fender lining made multiple gashes all the way around my tire as deep as the tread.

what is the offset of the wheels, and what tires are they? I have 205/50-15 on stock 15x6 wheels, dropped nearly 2" and I've had zero rubbing problems of any kind.

 

i even have like 45 degree offset and slammed like 3 inches and no rubbing.

 

I have 17" RH C2 Evo's and it's slammed so you wouldn't be able to fit your pinky finger in the gap. How much of a drop would you say that is taking into consideration they're 17's, 2.5"?

 

For track events I have Enkei Type 137 wheels (15 x 6.5 w/38mm offset) and Toyo Proxes RA-1 competition tires (205/50ZR-15) and I rolled my back fenders to prevent rubbing. This setup causes the wheels/tires to extend out slightly further than my stock rims and 205/50-15 tires. BTW, my car is lowered 1.5" w/Eibach Prokits.

 

I have GC with the threaded part flipped and the little perch or raise and lower thing taken out maxed out and i rub really bad on 14's
