Any advise? What can I do to stop the rears from rubbing?

AZN Optics

stretched tires, raising, and/or induced cambering. Pic would help.

Making them a higher offset.

Need more info on what you have? What off set and how wide?

Im looking to go 18" and I find it hard to get wheels that I like in the correct off sets. Most of the lower priced aftermarket wheels are limited in their off sets-35-45, the stock 17" MB twin spoke wheels are 7.5" with 47 offset and 8.5 with 58 off set from the info I have so anything much less in off set of wider may rub.

There is a wheel thread here with a lot of great info.

If you cant return the wheels or want to keep them the only thing you can do may be to work on the fender well to help make it fit,

We need the width/pics to give help! They could be 7.5" wide or 10000" wide, we don't know! Also the off-set!

impossible for 19"s to rub- so your not giving us all info to help you

are they rubbing on the inside of the firewall because i do not see where they are rubbing any where along the outside fender. what is the size of the rear tire. and is that the place on ebay where you purchased the wheels?

Tarek307

These are the exact wheels i have 19" MB8 42-45 offset and no rubbing- alot of clearance i'm actually gonna lower the car because of that

Fender looks clean, caliper looks clean.. Where's the rub?

Storm Trooper

I assumed because they stick out a little that they were rubbing on the outside but I didn't check for rub marks. I guess I will have to and post.

And the rub is only when I hit large bumps or corner hard.

And rear tire size is 265/ 30.

Amir_AMG

get your fenders rolled...even shaved...or go with a 245 in the rear

Storm Trooper

I'm not seeing evidence of rubbing on the tires but I do hear it when I hit big bumps or corner hard. What does "Rolling" or "Shaving" entail and look like? Anyone have any pics of theirs after doing it? What would it typically cost?

Instead of rolling fenders, go with 255/30 19.
