    It's probably the front of the tire contacting the plastic liner in the wheel well. I have THR CAB's and my tires rub the plastic liner slightly at full lock with 225/50/15 on euroweaves so the additional caster you added in is making the situation worse. I would take the car back to the alignment shop and try reducing your caster angle until you have full steering range. The THR CAB's gave me almost 10deg of caster by themselves, I don't know why you would need anymore than that anyways.

      I took the fender liners out before I even had these wheels on haha. Even my stock bcaps rubbed on those with the THR fcabs haha.

      Hopefully by reducing some caster and changing my camber to -3 I will have my steering back. If the alignment guy can work some of this magic next week then I'm keeping the wheels, but even if he can get them to work I may still sell them so that I can get something more slam-friendly. I could probably raise my car a little and be just fine but... I don't wanna!!!! hahaha

        Mine rub on my sway bar. Also the 95 m3 rack will give you less turning radius

          ^i have e30 m3 tabs&end links

          also my turning radius was fine when I was running bottlecaps. Im gonna remove another piece of the fender well and see if it solves it. I already removed the front part where the brake duc tgoes but for some reason I forgot about the part above it

            Why don't you run 225/45/15s?

              Try finding a tire in that size with a tread wear above 140

                That was my reasoning when I first bought the g-force sports, but now I wish I did go with the 225/45. Is anyone interested in buying just the tires? Maybe I can just sell the tires and get RS3's.

                    No you would be fine with 15x8, it depends on the tire size and how low you are. If you get 225/50's then you can't go that low. You could get a smaller tire size and be safe. Depends how low you want to go and if you want to roll your fenders
