Ok so my offsets are +49 in the front and +62 in the rears...im dropped on espelirs but they are lower than the regular 1.3 drop........im rubbing in the fronts.....what can i do?

hello all i know there was a pic request thread about some volk gt-s'. I just mounted them and i will post some high quality pictures. But here is the link to my original thread

and i do have some questions about rubbing and stuff that you wheel experts might be able to shed some light on. thank you

 

tire sizes might help...if you want, you could pull/flare your front fenders to give more clearance.

 

Knowin the offsets means nothing without knowing widths and height of the wheels. My advice is based on the assumption that the size of the wheels is within reason on the front (not taller than 18 inches, not wider than 8 inches).

If you are rubbing in the front, you have 4 options:
1) raise the car back up
2) roll the fenders
3) get narrower front tires.
4) add camber

edit: forgot the fourth option... and you can also do a mixture of them 4

 

In his other thread he says they are 18x7.5 +49 and 18x9 +62. 225/255
I am running 7.5 +48 with a 225.
I say add some more -camber

 

If your running a 225 up front, that is your reason for rubbing. The espelir is a great drop spring but It is not stiff enough. Your are rubbing on your inner fender wll up front. Coilovers can be the solution due to its dampening, but adding more camber maybe be able to help it out a bit, but I doubt that it will though.

When I was on espeilrs, I was running a 7.5 +48 with -1.5 camber and i still rubbed on hard dips. Just a thought
