Rubbing

Rubbing

Hey everyone

I have a set of 205/45/R16's that im planning on putting onto my 01 prizm after winter is over. I was just wondering if I would have any rubbing problems on the rear quarter panels or fenders in the front.


thanks everyone

Yes, you will rub. The rear is always worse than the front. I recommend you roll the fenders before you install the wheels. A new stiffer suspension will also help greatly.

Depends on the offset of the wheels... If it's +40, you won't rub.

But I still recommend you to roll your fenders.

I have 205/45/16 and it did rub when i went threw big bumps. And it will rub more when u have extra passenger in the back. As long as you roll it, you'll be fine. Roll with the fender roller tool, not the cheap baseball bat!

i had 205/40/17s and they were fine.

i had H&R sports lowerin and kyb-gr2

im actually planning on getting 205/45 or 50/16's myself, i hope they wont rub

also guys i wanted to know exactly what does the number 7 in 16x7 mean, i thought it was width in inches, then a 205 tire which is width in mm cannot be = 7 inches? now can it?

i have 205 40 17 dunlop dz 101s that actaully stick out like 1 cm further than my rim and they dont rub its also on ground control and tokicos with the fenders cut and rolled proffesionaly
