i have some 15 inches rotas gt3's on my eg. they look fine and does not rub when im driving straight, but as soon as i take a quick turn i could hear the tires rubbing against the car... im wondering if it is because the stock suspensions are too soft...any feedback?????

aak

the tire size, and offset of the wheels may also have something to do with the problem.

nice avatar. lol

yeah definitly tire and offset problems.. but im pretty sure all rota gt3's will with civics so it has to be your tires...

superslow-oto

do you think with stiffer suspension liek k-sport the problem will stop?????

jdmrwd

i dont think it has anything to do with the suspension unless your car is lowered to ****.. lol

I had this probel when I first got my wheels. I think that it is just how soft the suspension is and the fact that the tires and wheels are bigger. It went away after a while probably because the tires rubbed it enough. If it really bugges you get some stiffer spings and keep it at stock hight. That should help.

I had the same problem when i was running stock struts with ebay coilovers- i bought Tokico Illuminas with H&R sport springs thinkn itd get rid of the problem but it only made it worse- it was definatly the offset tire size problem-

u souldnt have to roll your fenders if your rims are 15 inchs.. something else is an issue here

could it be maybe something like body roll, or has the car ever been in a wreck to where it could have bent the frame?

getting springs/shocks would just make it worse because it would lower your car so it would rub even earlier into the turn and if not more, its the offset

roll your fenders or get a stiffer suspension
