17" rims back rub problem

17" rims back rub problem

i got some 17x7 rims with 205x40x17 tires. when i put a lot of weight on the back, the rear tires rub on dips and what not.

are there special springs i can buy to remedy this minor problem?

rub where? on the tread? inside? outside? what offset on those wheels?

i don't know where exactly they rub because i'm hearing it when i drive.

The offset is in the high 40's i believe. like 47 or something.

I have an '01 and I had the same problem it is probably rubbing on the outside of the tire. I just rolled the fenders in a little bit and the problem went away.

Do you already have aftermarket springs and struts? If not, I would highly recommend getting some.

must be the fender lip. needs to be rolled or cut.

this has been covered many times before. do a search.

on mine it was teh fender lips so i had mine cut, now its not as bad.... But with 4 people in my car my tread rubs off, but that will be fixed soon with newer better suspension

^^^ wat they said, cut or roll that fender lip

47 offset!!! wow I am on 43 offset on my 02. you are rubbing on the inner fenders, so yea cut or roll.
