my95 rear suspension
#1
Every time I go round a corner at some speed I can hear rubbing coming from the back,and also especially with weight in the back when i'm going slow. Any ideas as to what it could be ?
Thank's
Dave.

Is it a UK car or import ?
What size wheels are you using and offset?
What size tyres?
Uk cars have a plastic piece by the wheel arch and 17 inch wheels with 215/40/17 often hit the plastics , 205/45/17 don't hit the plastics (from what I can remember) .
Hope this helps Dave

Thank's Big Bear I'm using 17" wheels with 215/40/17 not sure of an offset though.One thing I have noticed is that the suspension mounting is quite low,do you think I need to put new springs on to stiffen it up.By the way it is a prodrive UK car does any of this suggest anything
cheers
Dave.

I'm not quite sure but I think you can remove the plastic piece , this will stop the rubbing , next time you get tyres get the 205/45s and replace the plastic .
