yea...just curious to those who have low rides if they experience this issue. Mine is currently at 3/4 finger height and rubs. My rims don't even stick out.

Here's my low car guizz
you can find it on eBay, under rubber beading or lining. Sometimes you can go to window places to get it, they sell it as "weather beading/trim" stuff.Quote:

Officeworks sells "Scotch Heavy Duty Exterior Mounting Tape" this tape is extremely sticky! (prefer this than 3M)

Mine never did that even when i had my Work CR Kai's and those were tucked under the guards
But im on stock wheels and even lower now. No rubbing issues. My car hits the ground though. if that makes a difference.
Wheel specs and height?

wow. and I thought rubbing my outer lining was bad. From memory they are 225/40/18 18x7.5. I prefer not to scrape or hit the ground but still give the low ride look. Ive raised it by 3mm so ill take it for a spin shortly.
just plastidip ur hood.
Your wheels aren't wide so i don't know why you're getting problems. I ran 17x9 without rubbing issues.Quote:

I took it for a drive. It only rubs when the roads are quite uneven or when I drive fast crossing tram tracks. 9/10 is ok but the 1/10 happens mostly when im on the inside lane (closest to gutter) and the road is unbalanced. It was rubbing 4/10 before I raised it by 3mm. I guess im ok with this. Ill just stiffen it a little bit more. Off to wheel align this weekend.
Half paint it?
Lol Not half painting :(Quote:

You might aswell do 5mm and get an alignment and keep it there.
Is the height the problem or is it the rims/tyres? Why not leave it lowered and invest in Camber Arms?
