suggestions? my front tires are rubbing
suggestions? my front tires are rubbing (NEW PICs)
Hey guys,
I just purchased some HRE 840Rs with 235/35/19 in the front and 315/25/19 on the back. They look great and seem to fit fine until I turn hard left or right. I attached some photos and you can see how the tires are rubbing. Is a simple matter that my suspension is too low or do I need to do something else?
here are some bigger pics, what do you think? Of note, the wheel well bulges in a bit where the tires rub. the bulging is exactly the same on both sides. Does everyone's do that? If this car was in a wreck, I'm getting a lawyer!

Your height even looks fine...no lower than mine.
How wide are your front rims?

I know. Your car looks lower than mine and i'm sure your wheels/tires are at least the same size or bigger. Is a little rubbing a big deal? should i just ignore it?
