Down 60 On Softstars, Problem?

Post by paige1992 »

Lowered my car 60 mill and its running on softstars, the front wheels are scraping n catching on the plastic arch on the wing quite bad, not a clue wah it could be as the offset for wheels is ok, going get tracking sorted tuesday, if it still does it i havent a foggiest.............. :meh:

Any ideas why this could be?

mine did that for a while when i first put the cesaros on, once it had worn down abit it never rubbed. unless you put it on full lock and went up abump or a kerb
OFFICAL DVLA DATA:
1414 - corsa gsi's on the road in 2008.
735 - corsa gsi's currently on the road and 436 SORN
Basicly you would have to be a right tw*t to break one for parts :rant:

Thanks to everyone for an awsome weekend at pvs!

Maybe just cause there 16s? just try grinding away some of the arch then it should rub down eventually to a stop

yeah thats wa it does, but im thinking maybe its because i forgot to put the bump stopper on? So gonna ava bash n put it on see if it stops it. But like u said it might be because it hasnt worn in yet, cheers guys :)
