Hey guys,

I recently put 30mm spacers all around on my 06' coupe and since I'm not lowered I thought it wouldn't be an issue but I have have some pretty bad rubbing in the rear tires, particularly when I have other people in my car or have stuff in my trunk. It honestly doesn't bother me and doesn't appear to be doing any damage.

Should I be worried Anyway? Could it be soon damge to the tires or the fender?

Thanks for any help!

 

30mm are pretty big to begin with and can cause premature bearing wear, so I would run smaller, and since its causing rubbing I would def run smaller. It may not seem like its causing much damage, but continued rubbing can cut into tires, not to mention it shouldnt be rubbing anyways.

And, if you are sagging that much with people in your car or with stuff in the trunk, I'd be looking at the suspension because you shouldnt sag that much.

 

Yeah I hear you about the rubbing and the suspension. I've actually already been meaning to get that checked out. I have a small amount of oil leaking out.

What if I was to roll my fenders? Is that hard to do?

 

Noob here, but what I have read: 20mm front / max. 25mm rear with a 255/40/19 rear. But I'm leaning towards a 20mm all around!

 

Rolling fenders is an option. Ive got my rears rolled, fronts are rolled from factory. Its not difficult to do with the right tool, but the tool isnt cheap. Sometimes you can find shops that will do it for a good price, even local car peeps sometimes have the stuff to do it. There are some writeups on the site about rolling fenders, do a search if you want to check em out.

 

Remove the spacers until you get your fenders rolled/stretched or buy spacers that will work on your coupe. You can alway sell your current spacers to some unsuspecting Noob member....

Roll the rears. It's fairly inexpensive and it's a quick procedure.

 

30s all around? Holy poke. 20/25 is max. 25/25 is pushing it.

 

Damn, when I was deciding between 30 and 38 (thank god I didn't do that), people were telling me that 30 would be fine (https://g35driver.com/forums/g35-cou...m-spacers.html). Of course now I'm hearing otherwise. I'm going to look into rolling them.
