Scuba Matt Posted June 25, 2003 Share Posted June 25, 2003 My 17's have same problem rubbs a little inside. Agreed turn it just off full lock and get by that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sorted4 Posted June 25, 2003 Share Posted June 25, 2003 if u car aint lowered it shouldnt rub, it could be a few thing u shocks r fcuked so i get full kit if u loweirng it, or it could be dreaded wheel bearing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted June 25, 2003 Share Posted June 25, 2003 If your 17's are rubbing on full lock that suggests they might be the wrong offset Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANT Posted June 25, 2003 Author Share Posted June 25, 2003 (edited) not sure bout the offset, they fit and look great so i am happy gonna get the bearings changed and lowered on a full kit next month Edited June 25, 2003 by ANT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Posted June 25, 2003 Share Posted June 25, 2003 not sure bout the offset, they fit and look great so i am happy Yea mate, mine are the same, they are a 43 mm osset and JUST fit on the hubs nicely and they rub on the plastic arch liner on the front of the car, but hay, they look pimp, and sit nicely furthur out in the arches than aproper ford fiament would, you gotta love alloys!
