15s arent the best size wheel choice for nothing.
Trav really wants 17" but he’s to scared to admit it :pQuote:

i suggest u get your guards rolled, it doesnt cost much!
if u know a panel beater, even better! get them to do it for free.
So lets say if it rubs the inside area (dunno what its called), cant u get spacers to make it not as "inside" u know what i mean.
Spacers are illegal - you can have them but if they find out at the pits you do - be prapared to have to take them out.Quote:

:D thats wat i do to minimise the rubbing...
I had the exact same problem. All I did was cut the black plastic back a bit, and now the wheel only scrubs when I hit a bump mid-corner. I haven't rolled my front guards either, but I am looking at getting the guards pumped a bit.
yep i had the same problem when i had my 18's on my EG, it was mainly getting rubbing on the inner arch.
I went to get the guards rolled but was told by the panel beater that it wouldn't make too much of a difference, so i didn't bother. instead i replaced them with some 16's and my car sits alot lower now, looks great still and doesn't scrub.
Sorry to hijack, but hypothetically, there is this car which i willl buy rght, its stock wheels are 15x6.5 with 38-40 ish offset but the new wheels i want are 17x7 with +30 offset. Its a nissan maxima. Will I have any problems in terms of rubbing? I went to this website and it said theres 1mm less on the inside and an extra 16 mm protruding..cant remmeber exactly.
