Rallye Front Tyres Rubbing

[allye 530 3 Cars]

Put some S2 rallye 106 wheels on my Uk 205 Rallye few weeks back and yesturday put my spax shocks on, about -30mm I think and the tyres are rubbing! it was fine all day but now it has settled they rub on the outside.

 

Will cutting the front arches solve it? I'm getting euro rallye arches as the tyres are too wide for the standard arches so they will cover any marks from cutting them.

185/55 i think, I'm so anoyed, I'm in one of those i hate my car and want sell it moods.

 

Just want to get it sorted quickly so I don't ruin my tyres.

 

Anyone think cutting the arches back will sove it?

Strange, i've never had any rubbing on mine with the 195 tyres on it except if i'm really giving it some through Bobbies chicane around Castle Combe and thats even with the 309 wishbones on it.

Its so anoying! You think harder/less of a drop springs would be better? i would take some photos but have misplaced my camera at the moment!

If you want to bring the car over to my place at some point i'd be happy to have a look and adise a way of getting rid of the rubbing for you.

You around tomorrow? I have a day off, I will put the car back on the 13inch standards tomorrow morning so i don't ruin the tyres! That would be great though.
