finally slammed! but madddd tire rub

[alexjoo]

I just remembered!!

I highly advise you to raise the car up a tad (to no wheel gap) till you get new wheels!!

My friend, a looonng time ago, slammed his DC when he saw mine and he had rubbing issues on his steelies. We looked under the wheel wells up front and theres this metal lip that goes along the whole middle of the wheel well. It was actually cutting the tire down the middle. I told him to raise it but he was confident that it was fine.

After a while, he hit up the touge down here, one of the wheels up front popped, slid off into a relatively deep ditch and flipped his ride. On an inspection, we came to the conclusion that the cutting of the tires is what caused the tire to fail. The tire popped in the middle of the tread.

I'm not sure if you touge or not but if you take on/off freeway ramps, theres a high possibility it'll cut up the tires.

Check under the wheel wells to make sure its not doing this.

story actually scared me the third time i read it fuckkkkkk i think ima check my whole car for safety reasons this weekend.......safety is always first

I had the same rubbing on the pinch point in the fender problem on my 97 gs. I was lowered on H&R sports with a 55 series sidewall. Once i rubbed thru the liner it started to cut my tires on bigger bumps. Had to go back up with .75 H&Rs

Lol at guy flipping out over something some one does from who knows how many miles away, and triple posting to do it. Theres an edit button for a reason chief.

If youre having issues with that metal seam, I took a hammer and bent mine over when I had some rubbing issues hitting bumps. Im certainly not super low, but when my suspension compressed the wheel would ride on the seam.
