ok so i installed my coilovers and it looks amazing (ksport coilovers). but i have 17" rims (5Zigen FN01R-C) so they rub. i will not lie i slammed it on the floor so i will be lifting it about 3/4" but it will still rub so i was wondering if anyone had any ideas to get rid of this problem without having to use spacers. the front would need like 15mm and the back only rub the fender( the tires in the back are tuck). and im not going to just put 15mm in the front and leave the rears stock so if anyone could tell me what they would do or any help thanks once again guys. i have been thinking about putting the steelies back on but i really dont wanna do that. that would be my last option. thanks

rears: roll/pull your fenders

front: from your description, looks like you are rubbing the coilover - put a spacer on or get thinner wheels or adjust the camber plate (helps a little w/ clearance since the shock body moves inward). if you are rubbing the fenders, then you need to either roll/pull your fronts, or get wide fenders.

easy peesy, would have found from basic searching or using common sense.

what is the offset of the wheels you have now?

you can either roll and pull the fenders. or get 20mm fenders in front and 30mm in the rear
