Front wheels rubbing!... Help?

**Johnny** · by **Johnny** » Sat Mar 18, 2006 4:44 pm

i've fitted an Apex 30mm suspension kit, the rides a bit rough, which was expected, but under medium/harsh cornering the front wheels rub on the arches, i've got 205,40,17 tyres but i'm not sure of the offset.... Any Ideas??? [img]/smile.gif[/img]

shocks and springs or just springs/have you checked all the drop links

You need to check the offset of your wheels - they could be the cause.

Yeah, it sounds like the off set. Mine has been dropped 40 mm with 18's and I have no problem.

to answer your question drop links are the ends of the anti-roll bar which fit into the lower suspension arms, often the bolt shears and you have no anti-roll, this should make a noise however when you corner
