Of course it will! You're probably better off with with that tire if you have a drop.

:burnrubber:

I'm running 16x7, 195/50/16, 37mm offset, 10mm spacer, NF210,
RING-TYPE COIL SPRING STABILIZER in rear, and I still have rubbing issues in the rear
if I load the car or in front when I hit a big bump on the highway at speed. Will install a camber kit soon.

:wink:

where is it rubbing exactly? you can put blue painter's tape in the fender and wheel well liner, go drive around and you'll know.

With my 16x7 +42 ET, 10mm spacers and a 1.5" Megan drop, I lightly rub the top of the fender wheel well arch on the right rear. With the setup Derick has, I'd imagine it would be the same location, possibly on both sides, and more severe than mine.

That's a good Idea Garm, I've been busy at work and haven't had time to install the camber kit you sent me, I'm going to load my car with a big sub-woofer box and run the exercise, but I have a general idea, in the rear hits on the metal lip of the fender at 12 o'clock, in front hits in the same area but it's plastic and has a round kind of screw (but it's not a screw) that holds the plastic fender at about 2-3 o'clock. This only happens at a specific bump on the highway if I slow down to 70mph there is no problem!

With only my self in car there is no rubbing, unless I push it really hard. But my 100 mile commute it's a pleasure to drive, specially at ramps, can't wait to put the camber kit with 1.5 degrees like you suggested.

Thanks,

Maybe if you rolled the lip flat that would give you extra room?

Yes!

That's next after the camber kit!
