Wheel rub

Recently got the car lowered , coilovers are as low as they can go at the front

The wheels are 6.5jx15

For some reason it only scrubs at one side if you really force it into bends

Any help please ?

Sounds like you need your wheels re-allinging with the backs.

Make sure the garage you take it to doesn't charge you for aligning the rear as there is no adjustment :lol:

Long shot but known this one to be the case is the et (offset) the same on both front alloys ? have known people with this before & turns out to be one of the wheels may have been replaced previously, same stud pattern width style etc but not same et ? weired but true

Thought I had the same thing bud - went round bends and noticed rubbing noise when turning right (so the left side rubbing) turns out there's' a patch on my driveshaft where the surface (rust!) Has rubbed off. !elieved to be/informed that it was the plastic casing covering the alternator wiring - just tied it out the way.

And as said - watch the shafts on the chassis, mine are about a fingers width from eachother and you have to watch potholes or you get a nasty bang! ;)
