My tires are rubbing???

[uv23]

Ok well this is strange. Back in the good ol' days I was dropped over 3" on coils and I never ever rubbed. But today, turning into a parking sport, I heard some major rubbage from what sounded like the inside of my tires. I'm guessing they're rubbing against either the inner fender or the shock assembly. Any ideas? Simon?

The shocks move with the wheels so unlikely. Could be the fender, IC tube...shouldn't be too hard to work out what with some crawling and feeling

Was your good old days used the same wheels like today?

Power-steering pump can produce strange noise too.

Well, I have a clubsport suspension to install in the next little while so I will let you know when would be a good time.

Yep exact same wheels. Tires are diff but same dimensions: 225/40/18. I really shouldn't be rubbing on a cup kit.

If you want to try my new suspension tools let me know, I know you don't have a spreader right?

I have holes in my fender liner from rubbing, generally it was only one direction, that was lowered on the 17's...I readjusted my liners, and eliminated that, but I noticed that my tires on the 19's were rubbing the deep inside of the fender (the metal area)

i have the lowest dropped cupkit in the club (well everyone says my car looks lower than thiers with the same setup) and i've never rubbed on my old 18s 225/40/18 8.5 wide

the only time i really rubbed once was with 4 people in the car and 4 bags of golf clubs in the trunk.. and i hit a good bump and i heard a noise which i assumed was the tires but that was the only time.

Yeah I know. Like I said, I never rubbed even when I was dropped 3 and a quarter on coils. Hmmmmmmmmm...

It's been said a million times before, but I will say it again... If you aint rubbin', you ain't dubbin'.

Gotta pay the price if you wanna be low-low.
