evo 8 wheels rubbing on 1g

BoostedTT91 · May 29, 2016

My 1ga I bought last year came with some evo 8 wheels on it. I just put some new tires on it which are 235/45/17. I am getting some rubbing on the inside of the wheel well it appears right above where the tie rod is. Has anyone else ran into this problem? I wouldn't think the tires are to big but maybe I'm wrong. Any thoughts. Thanks

What suspension is in the car?

Kyb gr2s w/ tein springs. Believe it's a inch 1 1/4 lower. I'd have to check the exact specs of the springs. They were on the car already

Shouldnt be an issue . Can you visually see the wheel off center ? Like maybe bent suspension components from an accident? Is it on all 4 wheels?

I'm running kybs agx with tein springs, with 3000gt vr4 brakes. Doesn't rub one bit. I'm also running camber kits in front and back. Something must be off

I am having the EXACT same issue. My new tire actually blew out on the highway after the new tires were put on
