hey guys. to start off i did a search but didnt find anything on this topic that would be helpful for me.

i have a ek hatch and i just picked up a set of neuspeed race springs (2.25 drop in the front and 2.0 in the rear), however i have 215/45/16 tires on my rims. everyones telling me its gonna rub big time when i make my turns because of the 215 in combination with the 2.25 drop infront ... what do you guys think? thanks.

 

i think they will rub quite a bit. 205/40's will do nicely.

 

ahh, yeah....they're gonna kinda rub just a *tad*...

go 40 if you must.

 

hope that helps.

 

thats gonna rub........

 

thanks guys! so i guess im gonna rub for sure....
well my friend has a set of eibach sportline springs i think its (1.8 infront and like 1.5 in rear?) do you guys think its still gonna rub if i put those on instead of the neuspeed springs?
thanks for your help guys!

 

I got the Tein S tech's and I will be putting on my 215/45/16's hopefully this weekend. I think my drop is only like an inch and a half hopefully I don't rub I'll let you know

 

thanks Jon V!
keep me posted man. it'll be alot of help man!

 

anyone else?
any advice would be appreciated.
thanks!

 

sounds like its going to rub. Bummer. perhaps you should consider trading or selling your rims.
