Rubbin like a mother f***er
This combo of Tein S tech springs and 9.5" wide wheels in the rear is killin me. I had 3 ppl in the backseat last weekend, and apparently that was a really bad idea. THere was rubber on the side of my car afterwards. I can't let ppl ride in my backseat anymore it is so bad! Anybody have any suggestions? As you can see the paint is starting to chip a little. It seems like its only happening on the left side. BTW, I just put these back on my car about a week ago. I had to take them off for a while because it turned out one of the wheels was damaged when I bought it. Long story.

i had the same problem but my rear sway bar would also rub the rear axle so i couldn't have anybody in the back seat, how low are those springs, you might have to raise it back up a little or change the wheels. i took my springs off and put my oem wheels back on. also a long story, it's so nice having a nice smooth ride again.

im in the same boat i have to role my fenders and cut some of my fender our so i dont rub. and also its a good excuse to not drive in college by saying only one other person can ride in my car with me.

I think I'm gonna take out my spare. How fvckin lame! Now I really wish I would have bought coilovers, or better yet I wish wouldn't have bought these wheels. Total pain in my *** these things have been! I love the way they look though.
