Default DC's and EG's with lenso's ????

OK i just got my lenso's on and i got coilovers,well the steering knuckle is rubbing on the inner part of my driver side tire and on the passenger side it has less then a finger width of space between them.Is anyone else having this problem?Im using 22x8x13 M&H with 13" lenso's,i set the tire pressure at 15psi just to see what they look like on the car.

I heard with lenso's there is no need for spacers or longer wheel studs and whatever else that you need if you run Bogarts.

i needed a spacer on my 25x8.7x13's on my ek. i thought they bolted right up but they needed a spacer also no matter where i set the coilovers.

i am not sure if it was both. the first time i fitted them was at the track and i dropped the car down and they rubbed on one side for sure so i jacked it back up and bought some spacers at the track.

My lenso's fit perfect on my dc2 with ground controls. though I had to jack the suspension all the way up to fit the 24.5's..
