Heres a better example of where i am rubbing. You cant roll that part since it is the rear bumper. Any of you guys having similar rubbing issues? Current tires are 255/35 but im guessing i have to go smaller with 245/30.

Tomie G, how much does it rub? You could always try sanding it down.

haha +1. Seriously i know all the shops to help to achieve hellaflush! I got them pulled at Dent Sport Garage (D.S.G.) Came out perfect. No waviness/ paint cracking.

If you need an alignment i know a shop that can work on extremely lowered cars aswell. I brought my shiet to them when i was on the ground and they were still able to do it.

It rubs pretty much when my suspension travels. You think it would work if i sanded down the bumper?

tomie,
mine used to rub there also. i just let the tire rub it for about 2 weeks or so and the tire melted/rubbed the plastic down so it no longer rubs. you could also cut it out if you really wanted

go 245/35 on that tire. You should get a bit more clearance and a nice stretch on a 10.5" wheel.

Igor, I know Igor1080 had the VMR wheels he has redrilled to 5x114.
And those rims were originally made for bmws 5x120... He told me the company that did them. Cause running m6 or m5 rims were one of my thoughts before 370zs lol
