phil.16v 0 Posted September 26, 2008 raise it up.....smaller wheels.....stretched tyres....roll your arches. Have 17" with 45 tyres. Would spacers do or is that all wrong? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CorradoVR6-Turbo 0 Posted September 26, 2008 you need to roll the back arches mate,dont put spacers on as this will make the problem worse,what offset is the 17" wheels you have? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted September 26, 2008 45 profile tyres on a 17" is half your trouble mate, you need 40 profile. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boost monkey 0 Posted September 26, 2008 You would have been better with high-end springs and shocks than low-end coilovers mate, but looks like Kev has answered your question. I'd never ever recommend stretched tyres unless you like death. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ditto I have Vmaxx coilovers on mine, they've not been 'properly' adjusted as yet, but massively unimpressed so far Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
