As the topic states, i recently put my Slipstreams and azenis on the car, and it is rubbing in the back badly, i was wondering what people did to rectify this problem. My car isnt terribly low, i have searched and people have said that they roll the fenders, im sure this would help, but i was wondering if there were any better solutions, thanks in advance

What is the exact size of your tires?
I run Eagle F-1 215 40ZR 16's and they do not rub.

 

Roll them.
Or lower your car without camber correction.

 

I had that same problem. Luckily i was trying out my friend's 205 azenis on slips, and when i found out they rubbed, i just gave them back. The widest i go is 195. Rolling the lip should help u out.

 

If you're rubbing on the fenders, you could:

- dial in more negative camber
- get wheels with a numerically higher offset
- roll the fenders
- raise up the car
- use higher spring rates

He is most likely running the 205/50-15 Azenis, which are actually around 219mm wide.

 

yea i am running the 205's, i am planning on rasing the back a 1/2 inch or so, and i guess rolling the fenders, i was just wondering if there were any other solutions thanks for the help

 

15x6.5
205/50-15
no rubbing. But, my fenders are slightly rolled and i'm not "slammed"

 

205/50/15s on 15x7 Rotas here. One washer for camber (about +0.5 degrees) and my car isn't slammed either. No rubbing at all.

 

If you bend it just use a rubber body hammer, It shouldn't take you long at all.

 

do 205/50/15 rub at stock height with 15X7?

 

heh I run 215/45/16's azenis on some enkei's lowered on h&r springs, I only rub if I have allot of weight in the trunk (like scuba gear for 2). I used the "baseball bat" rolling method.

 

Usually rubbing on the rear is due to the offset.
Look into it. You'll love me when you find the car handling alot better with the proper offset.

Hell no! lol and not on a 2" drop either, about -1.0 camber both sides, neutral toe, no problems at all
