Default Need some help from you people able to pull off a dumped car with no problems!!!

Well I just picked my integra up from Stock or Modified Bodyworks and put my wheels on (16x7 +38 Work Miesters). I adjusted the coilovers (Fortunes) and the car is low but def not near as low as I have seen guys pull off. I am running a 205/45/16 and with a decent amount of turning it rubs like crazy! It doesnt rub on the fender but sounds like its on the inside. My first thoughts were to remove the fender, see whats rubbing, and cut away! BUT I figured if there were any other suggestions or anyone that had the same thing happen before, I listening. Thanks in advance!

Easiest thing to do is either jack up the car or take the wheel of. Have a look where it's rubbing and go from there.

Taking the plastic lining out of the fender will help some, but you also need to be worried about the wiring harness that usually runs inside the fender well (people cut through it with tires all time time).

No such thing as pulling off a dumped car with no problems unless you dont drive it.


You just deal with the problems by ignoring them until they clearance themselves.

There is such thing as dumping a car without it rubbing like this. Dont know if i just need to cut out whats rubbing, maybe run a more narrow tire, or shorter series sidewall, or a spacer or what. just looking for someone that has gone through this before

Break out the BFH. I have 16x7.5+35 225/45/16 and it used to rub inside the wheel well. #1, the deathseam- that will KILL your tires, beat the flat (Take out fender liners lolol). Look for shiney metal for rubbage, beat with hammer ????????????????? profit;

Probably the fender lining. I have rubbed one gash in mine so far and it still makes noise sometimes when turning. I would say I'm low but not dumped:

Shitty cell pic.
