So I have a growing problem with my 1999 Acura Integra LS....
When I got it from my brother, he already had TEIN lowering springs installed. Overtime I guess they have set in now, and as it is getting colder I am starting to have problems. The early morning cold weather is contracting the springs making the front right tire rub on the inner fender and most recently the body itself. So far it only happens to the front right tire, I think its because we replaced the strut on it after damage so maybe it is not calibrated? Anyways, I need a quick fix before I can buy coil overs or higher springs.
I was considering taking out the inner fender (the plastic in the wheel well, I don't know the correct name), but I have a cold air intake right there so it may suck in too much water. Another fix i was thinking was to add spacers or something on the strut bar to maybe adjust the ride height? Would this be possible?? I really need a quick fix for this soon before something bad happens to the body or the tire rubs too much.
Please help ASAP!!!
As far as I know it only rubs when I turn left and shift any weight to the wheel at all.
