    river, we've been throuhg all this before.
    the wheel was hitting on the radius rod (iirc), because the rims are the wrong offset/width

    so he's trying to space the crappy wheels out further, so they stop hitting the radius rod.

    ^^^^from those threads rolling the guards is useless
    get rid of the wheels and get the right offset ones

    The wheels I have aren't "crappy", and I asked a guard roller if it would fix the problem and he said rolling the inner guard would, and it's not the rods it's hitting

    Hi,

    So are you getting the guards rolled? If so, when?

    I'd like to hear if it fixes your problem.

    Also, got a pic of your car so we can see it and the wheels?

    spacer AND rolling the guards.......
    your wheels better look good !
    some times it can be helpful to mock up a bit of timber( like a 3 x 1 ,appropriate length with two bolt holes ) and have a look at what is going on , gives you a flat surface to measure offset from etc
