230 and spacers

enrita · 06-19-2009, 03:54 AM

Hello
Just got my spacers and wanted to let people know what rubs on a lowered e92 with 1 inch.
10mm front = rubbing on turning the wheels right and left
15mm back = rubbing on pretty much every road imperfection
10mm back = rubbing slightly taking hills fast.

i guess the 10 mm back rubbing i am experiencing is due to the 265/30/19 tires which are very squared on the oem 9J 230 rim.

So you are running 225/35 in the front? You think 5mm spacer would fit in the front then?

Is your car lower? I noticed in your setup you have Bilstein PSS10 Coilovers but not sure if its lower or not. I have the same rims, but wanted to try 235/35 265/30 but afraid it will rub based on the setup you have about the spacer, since 225/35 255/30 +100mm front and rear will be the same as my tire. Hopefully you are drop.

The back will rub like a mofo. It actually came to a point where it blows one of my tires.

Do you guys think lowered e92 on 230's with 15mm spacers in the rear will rub even though my fenders are rolled????
