right me rear wheels are scrubbing a bit (over bumps), but they seem to be scrubbing on the inner arch not the arch lip.

whats the best way to sort this? bash inner arch, or use a spacer and cut the arch lip off?

dont really wanna bash inner arch as it might push it closer to the spring..

the wheels are tsw alpines so i think the offset is 45.

cheers

My TSWs are very close to the damper covers (2-3 mm off) so it may be just rubbing on that, not the arch

Smack the inner arch, i fail to see how it would make it closer to the spring! Rick

well i took the spring out and kept lowering it, the closest bit i could see was the tyre to inner arch where it curves around the spring. if it was going to scrub in the shock wud do it all the time as tyre does not sit below this!!
