Fed up with rubbing... heres my plan - Page 2 - Toyota Yaris Forums

Rolling the fenders means removing the liner. I've done it, it buys a little bit of clearance but not much.

my situation in the rear is the tire is about flush with the edge if the car and rear bumper

you could also use those washers in the rear for a little negative camber back there.

, hmm, from what i remember, your shocks are non existant, making you slammed on the ground, you should probably get new shocks dude, not trying 2 me an ass, just making a suggestion

I am having rubbing issues as well. Too bad the tein shocks are so much money :(

I installed the Tokico blues and a 23mm rear sway today. Loads of improvement! The ride feels more "controlled" and firm over the bumps. With the trimming of the front fender liners I have 99% eliminated the rubbing. I am currently on a factory alignment and might do an slightly aggressive one soon (-1 to -1.5 camber w/ 0 toe).

I also did the rear suspension bolt relocation, and will report the rear alignment specs when I go next week.

Hi, I also have 215/45/17 and there is rubbing on the rear when I take 2-3 passengers on bumps.
Do you think it is good to roll/cut fenders? or better go to an alignment shop and get the rear camber?
What will happen when in the future I order MI Springs? Will this continue to be an issue?

Well I'm rolling on 18's with low profile tires 215/35 R18, I've been rubbing but what I did was cut the liner a bit and she is good, plus I got tokico blues and Tein spring, with only an inch of space from the tire from the fender, I was thinking about changing them but no, I love the drop and the feel.

You can also TRIM the liners only where they rub, keeping the rest intact.

im not running 17's but my yaris is pretty low now. i just trimed out the middle all the way to the next front and rear clips that hold the liner in place. i am just trying to keep my CAI as clean as possible so the dirt/mud doesnt coat my filter.. ill be running 225/45/15 here soon so i will need to roll the fenders as well

big lo · 01-04-2011, 11:32 PM

This will also depend if your rims are wider as well that would rubb until nothing is there

tein basic damper on mine.. 2 inches in the rear 1 3/4's in the front. I rubbed to the point where the under carriage near the top front is no longer there =(

Simply adding the Tokico damper may solve your issue on all but the deepest dips taken at speed. But, you may as will do the camber change when the dampers are installed. All it'll cost is the price of the crash bolts.
