Default MF10 rubbing

Hi all,

I got MF10s (bronze), but it seems on hard cornering i get rubbing. I'm running 225 front, 255 back, on Advan AD07.

Is this suppose to happen? I thought the MF10s should fit without rubbing? Any suggestion as to how to reduce rubbing (already running 2.5 degree camber rear, 1 degree front).

Thanks in advance.

how much are you lowered, and you really should have 245 in the rear maybe?

Its about 1inch from the wheel arcs to the tires, front and rear.

About the MF10s, I thought they have to be 225 front, 255 rear?

Actually, if the rims are sticking out X amount near the rims (eg. they are parallel to the arc of the wheel) does changing the tire size make any difference?

Are you rubbing in the front or the rear? Under cornering, going over bumps or both?

You could do several things to fix: Up your spring rate, increase the diameter of your sway bar(s), increase compression dampening or roll your fenders.

Mostly going over bumps... the wheel actually doesn't fit under fender walls anymore :-(

Thanks fo rthe suggestions... I'll talk to the mechanic and see what he thinks.
