So I bought the car alreadg lowered and with these wheels and tires. Is there anyway to gain mpre clearance in the front of the wheel? It has 215/45R17 was thinking about down sizing to 205's maybe? they are just rubbing on the front.

Does the car have camber/caster plates? It looks to me like the camber is dialed WAY positive and they may have also installed M3 control arm bushings causing even more caster.
Also, Is this clearance the same on both sides or just the one?

Tire is oversized. The correct size would be 215/40/17.Comment

Won't putting stock (taller) springs in make the problem even worse? With longer springs, the wheel would move down and forward in relation to the body. Something else is off here me thinks. Is the car 5-lug swapped?Comment
-
No its a 4 lug stillComment
