| Alrite lads, me new alloys are givin me greif, lots of rubbin when cornering hard, when at full lock the inside of my rims are literally CM's away from the TRE's, is it possible that body roll will give enough lateral play to rub against them? i get real bad squeeking noises at full lock even when not cornering hard, and it doesnt sound like rubber on metal, its metal on metal - could that be my rims gridin away at my rod ends or wat? im gonna have a closer look again to see if there is any marks but ive failed to find any so far. also i even get weird sound from the back 2, only the nearside rear though, i have a nice dent in the sill right at the arch so maybe summats stickin out and catchin a bit of tyre i dunno but its gettin on my tits. basically im thinkin of gettin a full set of GMAX lowerin springs and dampers to stiffen the ride, and lower it 30-40mil so it looks better, wheels kinda look lost in them big arches but dont fail to get intimate round cornors - so will spendin 200 quid on a suspension kit make it all go away or just creat more problems because of lowering? sorry for the long as **** post! if ur still readin nice one

| Re: *ADVISE NEEDED* New Wheels = New Suspension?? Take an alloy off and see what offset they are, it should be stamped on the back, something like et**. The offset should be et35, any higher and the alloy might be too far into the arch.
