I've gota Konig 17" with Falcon 205/45/17 and i don't rub at all... not even on hard corners.... you might have some problems with your springs....

dsc_pat · 07-04-2007, 06:14 PM

do you have stock springs with your 17 ?

I don't rub with 205 (azenis like 210+) 50 15 stock height if anyone care, 15x6.5 +40mm offset wheels, on a liftback

i don't know if this would be the right thread to post this but i lowered my sedan on the df210 springs today on stock struts. i currently have 17 inch tenzo rims with 42 offset and 205/40/17 tires and the front is rubbing a lot when i make a right turn and when i hit a dip in the road. would anyone know what might be the problem?

Just got some 17's.

No rubbing here with the Nitto Neogens

How much do you think an auto body shop would charge for rolling fenders?

The fenders are pretty good. I don't think you really need to roll it except for the bit that sticks out, but that is where the metal holds the clip for the fender liner.
This is where is usually rubs. If you put a bit of negative camber in the fronts it should help. Also for those who have springs like the DF10's or whatever but still using stock control rates for the struts. You should upgrade to a stiffer strut.
Some of the guys out there have those soft Tein lowering springs and these don't really help out either unless you add the better struts as well.

The larger the wheel, the more unsprung weight. Get a nice set of light wheels, 16's are perfect for this car as far as looks and performance. I prefer 15's. For the street I actually prefer to run narrower tires like 205's instead of the 215's or 225's. For track I use 225's and for solo, either 225's or maybe someday,,,,,,those sticky 255/45/13 A6 Hoosiers!

Right now, I'm in the process of changing all my tires to Toyo

I have found a sw for tire calculations (TyreComp1.3) it looks nice to me the good thing is that it is downloadable and can be used offline here is the download link
