Brought some new wheels but have a slight rub on full lock on one side.... :cry:

I would try a small spacer, and go from there. I had this on one of my old cars, and a spacer worked a treat!!!

1, Get the tracking checked!
2, Check the inner arche, could be a screw missing!? :wonder:

Failing them then a spacer will fix it, not ideal BUT perfectly safe!! :thumb:

Hope that helps!!

Yes, the nice guys at xtreme fixed my synchro problem with 5th gear. It's all fixed and torqued up again like new now. Just need to pay for the damn thing now.

:lol: Sorry.... if it's any consolation, I'm spending money like it's going out of fashion on mine, just change one thing then it's onto the next bit!

Please tell me it wears off and i'm going to feel all warm and satisfied soon? :wonder:

id say trackin could be a cause if not what offset are the wheels ?

EmEm 13 November 2006 06:48 PM

You need to be strong like me, and PROMISE yourself, you will not modify!! Clear repeaters and gauges aren't classed as mods...are they?? :wonder:

MYSTERY OF THE RUBBING WHEELS SOLVED !!!!!

Took the car the Xtreme Scoobies and ...................... wait 4 it!!!!!!

The tyres are infact 225 NOT 215 !!!!!!!!!!!!!! :eek:

Well not only did Rochford tyres put on the wrong size tyres they nearly snapped my wheel studs as they'd done the nuts so tight! :mad:

Well after driving around most of Essex I went back fuming and they switched the tyres and I upgraded them for a not so bad price :iamwithst

Oh well thanks to Knowlesy at ES and cheers to everyone for the help...

Funny you should say that...I took my old 4x4 down there to have tracking done, and when I put it through MOT, my mechanic said there was no way they had done the tracking...I was going to take it back, but couldn't be a*sed with the possible rows, and I wanted my new scoob too, and had waited long enough!!
Never mind, plenty of other garages around.......TURBO T, HOW MUCH FOR TYRES.......please!
