Celicar Turbocharged February 7, 2013 Share February 7, 2013 Cannot picture how can rub front bumper edge, you mean front of tyre well? If the overall tyre size stay the same as it should, then no changing to profile to 45 will not help. If you change profile such that tyre size changes, then your odo will be off.

AlanZ Neutral Newbie February 9, 2013 Share February 9, 2013 If rub fender then camber or fender roll helps. I duno how to rub bumper edge too. U can change tyre profile to 45 if u dun mind ur speedo off abit.. But then u may encounter another problem. Rubbing too many humps as the overall ride height is slightly lowered. A easier option is raising ur ride height. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
High_octane 1st Gear February 9, 2013 Share February 9, 2013 Hi TS, When they jack up the car, do you spot any aftermarket adjustable arms? Any spacers? What's the rim offset? Stock bumper? It is possible to rub the bumper with offset exceeding the fender and some adjustable arms in place (i.e. toe arm, lower control arm...) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamburger Hypersonic February 9, 2013 Share February 9, 2013 its not the tyre ratio, on after market rim? The offset is wrong. 48 or 45mm should not have this problem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roberttan 5th Gear February 12, 2013 Share February 12, 2013 best is get the reputable shop to see your car physically and find your problem fix it from you described here is too brief. and recommendation may not solve your problem here Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
