Hi Hartawan, my rim which is the same specs as yours and i also have the same rubbing as you. Problem is my four rims all rub. DCR tell me no rubbing issue. But i am still very HAPPY with the rims. Thanks for your help and reply the last time.

get a heat gun and like a bat or something with a rounded off head. heat up the lining and push back the lining. its easier done than said
