Hey fellas,

I just put my Volk GT-S on my G35 Coupe.

I have 255/35/19 fronts and 275/35/19 on the rears. I rolled the rear fender so it doesnt rub but when I make turns on uneven pavements I can hear the front rubbing.

Now, I know the front comes pre rolled from the factory but it doesnt seem to be fully rolled flat if I remember correctly. Can I roll the front some more or could the fronts be rubbing something else like the fender liner or suspension? Should I change the tires out to 245/35/19's? Would that solve my problem?

I am lowered on KW V1 Coilovers. Both the fronts and backs are slightly tucking the tires. Originally when I lowered the fronts I had it with about a 2 finger gap and it did not rub.


Thanks in advance!

 

I didn't rub on 255's with my GTS'. Are you running spacers? Camber settings?

 

Hey pepper thanks for the reply.

I have an SPC camber kit that came with the car that I didn't touch..should I adjust the camber a bit? I also do not have any spacers. The GTS wheels are the standard +18/+17

 

You're rubbing on the fender liner hardware. Remove the 2-3 screws in the top of the fender and pull the clips out.

 

U need 245s in the front..

 

hmm im getting a few different answers now..can anyone clarify if I can use 255's in the front? I could adjust the camber but if its rubbing inside of the fender than the camber wouldnt matter correct?

 

i didnt know kws can tuck tire

pics?

and 245s will solve your problem

 

I've run 255 up front on lower offsets.... Trust me. Remove the hardware.

 

I just responded to a post titled "tire size question" with a similiar situation. To me I thought the 255/35 was a better choice, but maybe this is the reason most go with the 245/35's. Good to know since I have to buy tires in the next few days.

 

i run 245's on the front..hard to say withouth seeing the car..u could adjust the camber in the front to run a little more negative with that kit you have or just change the tire size

 

+1, remove the screws first, wouldn't hurt to try and not to mention...it's free. Then give the metal tabs a little bend inward. It solved my slight rubbing issues.

If it still rubs then go make camber adjustments and pay to get an alignment.

 

Maybe you can do 255/30. might help out a little bit up there.
