so my friend asked for my help to install his super street tein coilovers and pillowball mounts.

it all went on just like it supposed too.. just he was like well its sitting too low.. so we jacked it up to its highest setting! and the front passangers side tire when you turn rubs on the fender well and well actually both sides do now.. this cant be right can it? hes running 235/45zr17 tires up front so there not crazy or anything.. but it rubs and sounds like crap!

any advice on how to correct this while not removing the fenderliners.??

 

Nevermind

 

Hmmm try to have same camber kits and have it caber properly and also try to realign the wheel alignment just to be sure.

yeah its all aligned and all but its rubbing only when you turn.. the coil overs are set to its highest setting which is still like .5" lower than stock.. but when you turn it rubs onthe fenderlinings.. it stinks and makes a horrable racket and smell lol

 

is the offset correct on the rim for the FD?

 

if you maxed out on raising it by the shock body length, you can further raise it by preloading the spring.

to do this you move the spring perch upwards by tightening it against the spring.

 

Tein Super Streets do NOT have an adjustable shock height (lower shock mounts are welded to the body and are not threaded/adjustable), only spring pre-load (which adjust height). And I'm guessing this is an FC? What size wheels/tires and offset? Is it rubbing just on the inside fender liners, or the outside fender lip too? Is the tie rubbing wiht the inside or the outside of the tire?
