Guest hboyow Posted June 13, 2006 well the wheels i had on before, were about 50mm too wide so rubb on the arch. the 1.9 wheels clear the arch by literally a mm. 5 adults in the car with me n a mate bouncing on the boot! that was low hehe well chuffed!

RHULPUG 0 Posted June 13, 2006 Mine rubbed when I had speedlines on my old XS with just me in the car going round a corner quickly. They generally rub on the rear valance, so perhaps that has been trimmed or moved back slightly. Other reason maybe that your rear beam is seized solid so definitely no movement possible.
