- Sun Jul 12, 2009 11:13 am #129908 Just leave it, the more it rubs the less it rubs

My 1st eg build up -> http://civic-eg.com/viewtopic.php?t=802

- Sun Jul 12, 2009 9:47 pm #129954 yeah cause it will just break it apart after time. That's what happened to mine on my coupe..I just cut them and left enough to cover the door jam

- Mon Jul 13, 2009 9:56 pm #130155 yeah if i can be assed ill cut it. if not, ill go with grahams technique

What size tires are you running? I use to run 195 and I had a lot of rubbing issues, now I run a 185 and its fine.

What size are your wheels? What is the offest?

Im on 205s and do not rub at all. Infact, I have never had rubbing issues on any of my wheels. 195s, to 205s.


To the OP. Take the plastic liner out or cut it so that you dont rub it anymore.

What size wheels and off sets are you on?

1986 Nissan 300zx
1980 Kawasaki KZ650
2014 Kawasaki Ninja 300

- Tue Jul 21, 2009 7:48 am #131978 have no idea what offset, but size is 15's. cut the front of the liner a little, seems to have sorted the problem.



its so good to finally have my car on the road

- Wed Aug 05, 2009 9:50 am #135568 what is your wheel offset? the lower the offset is, the greater chance of getting that rubbing issue.
