problem! 20' agressive offset BBS LMR rubbing front wheel well

Fab_vr6 · 02-20-2011, 11:57 PM

When I make sharp turns, the back end of the front wheels rub against the back end of the front fender well. Does anybody have the same problem?

My wheels are Amuse offset BBS LMR with 245/30/20 tires, suspension is KW Clubsports with about 1" lowered than stock ride height.

Please help!

i have Breyton race gtsr-m's 245/30/20 tyre, kw v3 dropped 40mm and i get a slight rub when coming off my drive..

I'm running a very similar fitment with no problems... Maybe your camber is to close to neutral?

Fab_vr6 · 02-21-2011, 04:53 PM

I just double checked my tires are actually 245/35/20... That's why!!

LOL Jimmy! I concur...

carter510 · 02-23-2011, 03:04 PM

im doing 20x9 +15 with 245 30 lowered on v3 almost all the way down. No rub

huyner328 · 02-23-2011, 03:42 PM

Possible solution, just give the wheels to me.

ojwerks · 02-24-2011, 02:33 PM

yeah, there is a massive difference (more than people actually think) between a 245/30 and a 35 series, specially on a 20!! Thats your problem right there... so im assuming your running 30 series in the rear?

M3LISSA · 02-28-2011, 04:20 PM

So you dont think 35's will rub on LM's if an E90 is NOT dropped and on ZCP height?In the rear only I'm asking about... Thanks

GTM_Challenge · 03-02-2011, 10:21 AM

The M3 is very sensative on overall diameter.If its much more than stock OD, it can rub on the inner fram rail or fender liner at full lock. 245/30 will fix the issue

M3LISSA · 03-02-2011, 04:12 PM

Then will 35's fit on the front if your not dropped and on 20's? It should right... But im assuming 35's in the rear with 20's can potentially rub.. No one seems to have a definitive answer so far.. Thats just my knowledge so far.. Help??!!!!

If you try to use the 35 series on a 20in wheel in front it will rub the inside no matter the height. its an OD issue, not width

hi, putting 20's on you need as much room as possible, don't for get the wider the tyre e.g(a 285/35 tyre will have a bigger wall than a 225/35).
hope this helps...

Thats what I was thinking also.. It looks like a 35 is out of the question. 285/30/20 looks like the choice im told.

We run a 275 or 285 in back on this setup depending on the tire brand and model. Some with a more aquare shoulder will have more room in back using a 275.

Thank you, my 285/30/20 on Hankooks V12's seem great!
