Rubbing on full lock

[vw55raz]

Decided to lower my suspension a bit more today and im getting a lot of rubbing on full lock. The wheel hits the back bit of the front arch. Even rubbed when the coilies are were raised right near the top!

Bit weird because it never used to hit with my lenso BSX's and they were also 15's with 195/45/15 tyres.. Can anyone help me out please.


Pic below shows where it hits

whats the spec of your wheels?

whats the spec of your wheels?

Theyre ATS Cups. 7J. Not sure on the ET. Either 20 or 28. I think my lensos were 38

Hmm 7j may cause that, but it's rather odd. I never had any problems when I had my rh cups and they were the same width as what you have.

i dont know what to do.. i dont want stretch tyres. Someone said the toe may be incorrect, someone said to grind that bit down a bit and some saying dont.

Bit odd really considering it didnt do it with the other wheels.
Have you got any camber issues on the front? I know you recently changed back to coilovers

[vw55raz]

Basically I put the coilies in, went to get camber done but the guy said my wishbone bushes r splitting so he didn't do the adjustment. Got the wishbones changes along with anti roll bar drop links and new ball joints. Went straight away to tracking and camber place and I full locked to the left and reversed and that's when I first noticed the rubbing and keep in mind I had the car raised quite high. After the alignment it still did it. Camber is dead straight though.

I'm thinking it might be the offset of the wheels
