Just bought some 18x8 kyowa rims. When taking a sharp turn it rubs a little bit. Had a couple of friends in my ride over the weekend and was rubbing like crazy. Before i had some 19's never had any issues. I just dont get it do i need spacers or what ?

 

whats ur offset? well if u get spacers ur just gonna make the rubbing worse.

 

Depends on the offset and how fat your friends are. j/k!

How wide were your 19s? The width and your Tein S Techs on your current set up may not be meshing well together.

 

My 19's were 19x7.5 225/35zr/19 so a half inch would make that much of a difference?

 

whats ur offset? +35 +45 ?

 

Damn dont know how would i find out?

 

should be on the box or where u bought them from.

 

What should be the correct offset for this not to happen do you know?

 

between 40-45 ofset would be nice.

 

Man, you know whats crazy i went to kyowawheels.com before i bought these and they statted that these wheels would fit nicely on my tc. But i bought them here localy in san diego. So let me ask you this if i go with a 215/40/18 you think that can cure it? But damn i really dont feel like doing that unless i dont have any other choice

 

^^ Should of dome wheel offset research before buying wheels!....Dont go to 215's...stay w/ 225's....
I have 18x8 wheels...my offset is 45!..I dont rub at all....lol

 

Thats f**ked up HAHA

 

i have a set of them aswell but they are the 18x7.5 they dont rub at all.

 

These are 18x8.5 with an offset of 35 and no rubbing.

 

nice setup, how low did you drop it??

this is where adj. coilovers come in handy.

and yeah it's prob. a combo of the drop and the weight of you and your friends.

 

The drop is with Tanabe DF210.

 

put your stock springs on and"SHAZZAM"

 

either go 215 40 or 225/35

 

Yeah i think ill do that once i wear my tires out.

 

nah my wheels did that too. i was running a set of 255/35/18's and it only rubbed when i hit a bump in the road or turned really hard, its just the body roll, the car leans to one side making it lower and the outer tip of the tire rubbs the plastice wheel well, if had mine on for well over 1 yr and they're no signs of it, cant do much but roll the fenders...or change ur springs to something higher. im on stechs btw
