I put TSW Blade 15x7 rims on my integra and now when someone is in the back seat my tires rub. Will new shocks fix this and if so, are Tokico HP shocks good (I can get Shocks and Springs for about $350, good price?) . If this won't fix it, what is the cheepest way to fix it?

Thanks

 

Roll the fenders out a bit

 

roll the fenders, maybe thats how you do it in compton with a baseball bat, but around here people invest in a decent strut spring set up. as long as you are getting suspension upgrades, go with some koni yellows and eibach. . .most people only do it once, so you might as well do it right. tokico are alright i guess, but you get what you pay for

 

Could you tell us a little more on what you have on your car? Do you know the offset of the wheels? What size tires are mated with the wheels. What's your current suspension setup? Have you had an alignment lately? All of these could be factors on why they're rubbing. You might not necessarily have to roll in your fenders.

 

haha, people only roll fenders in compton? i don't think so. and struts and springs won't change the fact that the fender doesn't clear the edge of the tire...If you're talking sitting above it then shit, get yourself a lift kit or something. I was considering that this car is lowered or is going to be, which most people do to their cars.

 

All Im saying is rolling fenders is a lot harder than people make it out to be, you just dont go roll your fenders like you're changing your oil. Most bodyshops wont even touch that kind of thing; I dont know one person who has rolled their fenders without fubaring it. It's mostly all a hearsay type of deal, from baseball bats to sandbags to the rolling tool, its all pretty sketchy, so I wouldnt just go suggesting that to somebody who doesn't have that type of knowledge or experience.

 

i did it to my car in my garage in 20 minutes, paint didn't chip, and you can't tell. So really it's not hard. just be careful about it and don't go too extreme. Just roll it to where you need it, not completely folded.
