Re: Discuss this rubbing issue?
You are aware that the wording is wrong on the powerflex bushes and the one that says "right" goes on the other side? At least that's what the crack was when I had a set fitted. I used Lemforder brand new arms which are OEM quality and they didn't want to fit over the fin. I had to smack the purple...

Re: Discuss this rubbing issue?
what i can also add to the pic above is that when fitting the wishbone back in place on the drivers side it was a right bitch to get the bracket (lollipop) holes to line up for the bolts to go through - passenger side piece of piss but drivers side which is the problem side took some real effort to ...

I know there shouldn't be a difference side to side, but the big tyres aren't going to help. E30 m3s which use the same geometry wishbones, have the same body structure and turret layout got offset lower arm bushes when they moved to 16in wheels to get extra clearance front the back of the arch, an...

Re: Discuss this rubbing issue?
Well, if that tyre size with that combination of parts doesn't touch on the passenger side then it shouldn't on the drivers but as said, the camber needs adjusting on the drivers side and the castor issue looking at. this is what im trying to work out mate? i know its because of the caster its rubb...

i think the ratty look should be done naturally much like the "missile" look in drifting..
not made into a ratty/missile car but more so it ends up that way due to hard usage!!
