hey all.

I recently fitted my new gsi slabs i brought off benny f onto my nova. all seemed to go ok etc.

then i went out with my dad to find out that the back wheels rub when corning (i belive this is because of the shell rolling as i corner thx to no anti-roll bars)

so how do i fix this..

fit spacers longer wheel bolts and probly a wider arch kit as they might stick out past the excisting nova archs.

or is it something to do with the camber angle
:confused: :confused: :confused:

tomorrow ill take a picture of the where the wheels have rubbed its on the inside of the archs.

also could i lower it say 40mm with no problems heres a picture for now.

They look like 50 profiles.

Put some 45's on there.
