I have the 205/50/15 on my stock rims and at full lock they feel like thy rub. Does anyone else have this problem?? Could anything else be the problem??

You could have a midget stuck in your wheel well I guess

Don't know why it would rub. Is your car lowered more than normal?

I think my 205/50/15 Kumhos rub at full lock, same size, but different tire. but my car has been in an accident so it could be related to that.

Stock suspension here, and no rubbing.

Hate to push the "Azenis thing" but I'm up for new tires immediately and I was considering the Azenis as well as the Potenza S03s, obviously. At $63 to $70 per corner the Azenis seem like a deal. By looking at them they would not be ideal in the rain, but with 12k hard street miles on the RE010s that are currently mounted anything, and I do mean anything, is better than what I'm currently running. I have 15x7 Kosei K-1 Racing wheels, stock suspension. I've read how much wider the 205 Azenis are and how they are unresponsive on 15x6 wheels. I figure they'd be fine on 15x7s. My question is how well do they last. I'm committed to replacing my tires every season and I put approximately 12k miles per "season" with the car.

As for the Bridgestone Potenza S03 are concerned I've heard/read here that they are "much wider than a similarly sized tire" as well. If that's the case any recommendations of using a 195/50 S03 on a 7" wheel? Thanks, guys.

I'm lowered 2' and they rub, I can see where the y tire rubs when I take off the wheel.

Yes & No! On a flat surface taking the hardest tightest turns, No. The same tight turn up a driveway at about 12-15mph, Yes. But they didn't rub on the fender, they rubed on the inside motor splash guard, Chewed it up just a little with no damage to the tire. Hope this helps.

P.S. Stock hight!

Yep the same thing here, only rubs sometimes at certain MPH. I was also thinking about getting spoon springs. Would 205-50-15 azenis's and spoon springs be bad as hell with rubbing??

Of course they will rub if you lower the car two feet. Heck, to lower the car two feet, you probably had to dig a hole under the entire car because the car body is normally about six inches above the pavement, so you had to dig a hole 18 inches deep to bury the car in to lower it two feet.

205/50/15 Toyo RA1s on stock ITR rims and suspension. No rubbing.
