Hi all,

Just had new tyres fitted to my wheels 195/45/16 am finding that I get the front tyres rubbing (inside the arch I think) when on full lock, It did'nt do it on the old tyres. Do I need to get some spacers to stand them off the discs????

Many thanks....

If your running 16's you should run 195 40 16's to avoid rubbing. You will get rubbing with the 45's suppose it depends how low your car is and the offset of your wheels?

I found with 16's I needed spacers as the did rub. However I needed them for the offset as the wheels touched the shock.

Still got them spare if you need a set

Chaps im in need of spacers and bolts as requested in a wanted thread. I have 48.5 172 wheels with 45 series tyres. I have tried them on i i think the tyres wont rub as its only lowered 35 mm. Let me know what you have:agree:
