I rub if I turn sharply, driving by myself with a 205/45/17 +42 on DF210's.

i rub with DF210 on17x7 205/40/17 +40 offset i think, but only on the drivers side slightly, need to trim some plastic then it will be perfect!

yah based on my research in here.. 205 will rub on +40 offset.. seems like _ +45 offset is for 205's tires.

I installed my df210's on my sedan yesterday and the front driver's side is rubbing when i make a fast turn or if i hit a dip on the highway. are you on oem shocks/struts?

TRD springs, 205/40R17. +40 offset. Have had the car loaded with camping gear and one other person. No rubbing for me.

205/40/17 +45mm on K-Sport coilovers

I rub badly upfront. I mean, really really bad LOL. Driver side more than the passenger side for whatever reason. I think if the spring rates were stiffer, I'd be able to get away with it.

Rather than raising the car up in the front like a normal person would, I plan to just hack the fender liners up until it goes away.

Yep.

LOL. How is your car with a full load? Also, isn't it eating away your tire? My springs have only been on since yesterday and where it rubs on the liner, the plastic is already eaten out. Just wondering if this can cause any harm to the tire, it's only right on the edge of the tire close to the sidewall.
