Right Rear Rubbing More

onnex · 07-21-2015, 02:00 AM

I did a search without any results on the topic, but I was curious if others were getting more rub from the right rear than anywhere else. In general, the wheel seems to sit much higher in the wheel well than on the left side. Subsequently, the aggressive set-up I'm running definitely rubs a lot more on that side and is driving me nuts. (Likely changing tire set-up soon, but more concerned about the fact one side sits lower and rubs more than the others.)

Any insights are much appreciated. Finally getting around to posting this, but will post pictures for reference here shortly.

* I have H&R Sport springs installed.

Its possible that the rear spring was not installed correctly into the mount, meaning not positioned correctly. How much of a difference is there from right to left? Can you take a measurement?

Hmm, could be installation error or your left side possessing more negative camber. I assume you already got an alignment after changing out springs?

I have h&r sport springs and when I got my wheels and tires combo the right rear was rubbing more than the left rear. The heights are the same on both sides but the rigth side rubbed more. Now it ddoesn't rub hardly ever but it was in the beginning. I have 19x10.5 et34 wheel in the back with a 305/30 mpss tires.
