Still Rubbing!!!!

I have 18x8 on the fronts with 18x9.5 with 275/35's on the rear. I was rubbing with the stock shocks only on large bumps, so I switched to kyb gas shocks and now I am rubbing more but not as hard, its barely touching, any ideas?

There are no hocus pocus magic tricks. If you are rubbing you can raise the car, fit the correct size and offset of wheel, or use a narrower tire.

From your previous thread, you never answered the question regarding the offsets of the wheels. Also, 275/35 18 is much taller diameter than stock. A 265/35 tire would be a much better choice.

If you want us to help you, you have to help us.....we need the offset for the rear wheels. It should be stamped on the wheel or on a plaque/sticker on the wheel.
