Hi all

I have just bought a set of second hand 15" Work Emotion Cr Kai with tyres. It was originally off a DC2 and I recently put them on(stupid?). The front wheels clear but the rear wheels when i hit bumps or dips in the road it rubs the guard and oh i'm using king springs. The tyre size i think is 195/55 but not 100% sure. How do i stop it from rubbing and should i change the rear tyres?

thanks for your help in advance.

^ OR... you can run a lower profile, ie. 50mm, and then add camber PLUS more drop HAHA = WIN!!

minor, let the tyres grate the plastic excess bit around the mounting where the bumper meets the body right above the rear wheels.

195/55 doesnt look right on a 15x6.5/15x7. mmm donutsss..
