maybe you got the wrong offset? hate to break it to you but you're probably going have to get longer studs and bigger spacers if you're still rubbing the coils.

loosen the coil where is goes onto the knuckle, where the long bolts go in, pull on the rotor or hub towards u and tighten the bolts down.
hope that kinda makes sense, whats the offset? iam running 18x10 +22 up front and put a 15mm spacer and it still rubbed, losened the bolts pulled the wheel out and it doesnt rub anymore

did you get the 17x9.75+20?
you shouldnt be having a problem if you did.
i had 17x9 xxr 522+25 for about a week. i didnt have money for spacers or studs so i used small washers and i cleared.

only other bet i guess is extended studs with 10mm slip on
i thought megan had some sort of extender,that mounts to the coilover bracket, or whatever you had to buy?
