How much is your car lowered by? Front stock camber is zero. So you could do with 1 or 2 degrees of negative camber in the front.

You had 20s prior how come you did'nt have issue before?

i run 235/30/19 (rim 45 offset) and it only scrapes a teeny bit over dips. Mind you I run a finger gap between guard and tyre.

Bro i just got rob to lip the gaurds at suspension center in kielba

i was low with 20 X8.5 on 225 35 20 and it rubbed as soon as i had them fitted. As soon as i turn 1/4 it would grab the gaurd.

Robbie just lipped the gaurds and they were fine after that. He tucks the plastics over the lip and rolls it as the clips are the first thing to rub.

just letting you know.

thats a spin out!!!!

it's definetly the different off sets of the wheel or even the tyre brand i found plays a part. i have toyo's 225 35 20.

see how you go with the tyres.

even if you see robo he will give you good advice.

good luck

as some said, with 20" you will need to run 30's.

Once you put 30's on you'll be fine.

235/35/20 is way too big for the euro.
