Just installed 20" iforged rims. Rear tires 275/35/20's. The car is lowered w/ eibachs. I'm trying to avoid raising the car back up with the stock springs. The tires are rubbing, I'm entertaining rolling or cutting the fender lip. Any comments or suggestions.

 

Yeah I've notice the offsets are pretty aggressive on my iforged wheels. If I lower my car even more I would probably rub. I would roll the fenders if I were you or get some coilovers.

how much you guys pay for those iforged rims..
they look safe

 

I paid 2600 for mine. I drove hard tonight on the corners and my rear tires rub on extreme turns. I guess I have to roll my fenders as well.

2600 is a rediculously low price for those rims...how did you get them for so little? also, can you remember what your front and rear offsets are? when the tires rub, is it only on the rear, and on the outside?

 

My350z.com group buy section. I don't know the offsets, vince did them for me. It on;y rubs on the driver side rear because it's .4 of inch lower then the passenger side.

Brusso, the wheel sidewall is too high. You should be using a 275/30/20 instead. the 35 series sidewall is too tall in your application.

 

i would recommend that your raise the car to stock height with 20's on it.

 

thanks for the replys. Here are some answers. I paid $2700 w/ nittos. I know it's an amazing price. I rolled the fender lips a few days ago. I used a rupper mallet and lightly tapped on the fender lips for about 15 minutes on each side. I was able to bring the lip up to a 45 degree angle. I have about 200 miles on the car with no rubbing. I haven't had layed into any corners yet to see if it hits under extreme conditions, I'll let you know. The camber is still off from lowering the car, I'm going to have the camber kit installed next week when my ATI Procharger is being installed (oh yeah).

 

how did you achieve this amazing price ($2700 with tires)?

are they new, and can you pass this deal on to others?

 

I bought them from the previous owner. Perfect condition with almost no tread wear. They were posted on this website.

 

alot of people use a baseball bat wedged against the tire an fender. then you roll the bat along the arch. It make a very clean fender roll.
