is that screw looking thing supposed to come down that low, it's like an inch from my tire. if i go over a bump it'll prolly pop my tire! i had 19's on and it was even worse so i put the small wheels back on cuz i was worried

 

it is the upper control arm brushing. It will move up and down with your wheel together, and won't hit your wheel unless that is broken and falling off!!!!!!

 

oh okay thanks, so it's safe if it's just an inch above my tires?

i looked at my moms maxima and i couldn't even see a similar part above her tire

 

umm thats the upper ball joint. and it wont hit anything.

 

Screw thing??? Are you talking about the upper ball joint (gold top w/ red boot) if so you have nothing to worry about. The balljoint and the tire move relative to each other

 

most Hondas have the similar set up !!!!!!!

 

the guys with chargers and magnums have to grind the stud and nut in half when they run 22s and whatnot cuz they hit.

 

you're fine. now if the joint comes apart, then you have problems (ask me how i know ).

 

so if i go over a bump that thing will rise with the wheel? lol im jsut afraid its gonna poke my tire

 

your wheel is attached to 'that thing'. they can't move independent of each other without either the spindle or your wheel snapping.

 

Your missing a wheel......
