I just put on my 18s and realised on my two front tyres on my old 16s have two bits worn off it. it looks like it was from the bottom of the suspension rings....

now im really worried about my new 18s and its tyres.

i will post some pictures of what the tyres look like and where i believe it is rubbing.

I mean... the 16's were running on 205/45/16 tyres. and it still took chunks off it. that must be something wrong.... i dont think it is me..

any help would be great! cheers guys

anyone else experience that? mine dont rub at all, but are VERY close to parts of the suspension, less than 10mm away, (cant even fit a finger between it lol)

it must be the offset, what offset is it?
