Default Suggestions?

hey guys...I have a 2010 on stockies and I have 15 mm spacers.

I am running PSS 255/35/19 and than 275/30/19.

in the front I am rubbing super bad when in reverse and the wheel cranking against the fender liner.

people with this problem... do you guys just use a heat gun against the fender liner or what do you do to prevent this from continuing?

thanks!

I have the same setup and same issue - Mine rubs on the vents on the passenger side wheel well. I thnk if you take a heat gun to it and push it in you will be fine.

Does it only rub when reversing in one direction? Because that happens to me, and my fenders are shaved.

For me it is only in reverse - close t to full lock left. It's embarrassing when backing into a parking spot..

The problem appears to be your spacers. I'm running RCF wheels, fronts are 9" wide and have a 50mm offset. I have Bridgestone S-04, 255/35s on the front, and have no rubbing issues.
