Drivers side wheel rubs when I turn my steering wheel all the way to the right???
The inside of my drivers side front wheel hits something when I turn my steering wheel all the way to the right and makes a scraping sound when I move.
Does anyone else have this problem? How did you fix it?
I got a 94 civic coupe lowered on gc/koni. Wheels are +40 offset with 205/45/16 tires. Camber is set to -2 degrees in front.
Any help?

Yeah, I just don't turn the wheel all the way. Its about a 1cm difference from a full turn so Im ok. Just sucks having that in the back of my mind when I need to make a hard turn.

see if the drivers side coilover is slightly lower then the passenger side coilover. other then that you can roll your fenders. i had the same problem and i adjusted my coilovers to about the same height on both sides and then rolled my fenders. problem solved. at least for me. hope this helps

its actually the inside of the tire that hits. Its something by the washer fluid holder that extrudes out only on the drivers side.
I am thinking about rolling my fenders too. How did you do yours ClutchVtech9?

I had this same problem and actually just fixed it today. Did you look to see if any part of your splash guard was loose/hanging out? The inner/front clip that was holding my splash guard in place popped out and I didn't even realize it did until I took a closer look today.

lol i know how i spelled it. my nickname starts with a H and the 9 is my soccer number. maybe i should have capitalized the H lol. i actually did the ghetto rolled fenders with a baseball bat and heat gun. go on youtube and type in rolling fenders. theres a good video but its in japanese lol. just watch and learn i guess.
