    Got vtr wheels with a 55 profile my cars lowered 60mm, should they be rubbing at the front?
    They rub on full lock.
    They're only 14's, so would have though it would be alright...

    as said could be your arch lining, or even the washer bottle on the other side pushing the arch lining. strangely my car rubbed on 15' wheels lowered 35mm, lowered it more to 60mm and it stopped lol

    My R is lowered 50 or 60mm on S wheels, that rubs on full lock, can't remember if it rubs on the R wheels though?

    Any way of minimising full lock?

    185/55/14 and 195/45/15 are in theory the same rolling radius so it should make no difference if the wheels are 14" vtr wheels or 15" vts wheels.
