You won't rub in the rear with that wheel width and offset and tire width..  unless you're running spacers..

Haha, I know. I was more worried about the front as I rub sligtly on this one huge dip coming into my neighborhood if I'm going too fast but I took care of that yesterday. I pulled and rolled the fender and no rubbing this morning in my way to work. I do plan on running a spacer in the rear. I already have the rear fender rolled about 30 degrees. Hopefully Jason can help me out and we can get the rear rolled some more. After I have these on I should have a better idea how many mm's I can add but I know I can safely run 5-8 mms. Hoping for a 10 but I may have to run camber and I would prefer not to.

Getting two of my tires replaced with some Firestone house brands to get me by until June. The whole setup is getting replaced next year so some cheap tires are the only thing needed.

How low are you right now?  And what is your current suspension setup?

To give you an idea, this is a picture of the rear with a 17x8 +45 w/ 235/45/17..  

With just a roll, you should be able to clear a 10mm spacer.  With the stock -1 camber, you should have space..

When I had that setup, I could have used a front roll when I was low, but that was because I was at 0 finger gap in the front.  But I also only rubbed with a full car and while turning, but I was rubbing fender liner, haha.. If you're still at the height that your sig shows, the only reason that I see that you would have rubbed was the amount of rebound your suspension setup has.  I don't see why you needed to pull your fender though..

I'm on the Pro-Kit and Koni SP3s with the rear on the lowest perch and the front on the second lowest so about 1.7" front and back.  I can't really say I rub.  It only happens on the dip on the road going into my neighborhood, I've never encountered it anywhere else.

Took off and cleaned all my wheels, and noticed a nail in either back tire. I then took it to get repaired, and luckily for me, neither nail punctured through. I also rotated my tires. Next up: borrow a dremel tool from a friend so I can make my bumper cutouts!

[CYANiDE]

Oil change, Air Filter and Cabin air filter changed as well. Air Filter was a pain in the ass compared to other cars I've done.

Jeff: I borrowed a dremel for my bumper cutouts for my foglights and ended up ruining it. I suggest you spring out $50 and get your own. Very good to have too. Do eeeeet.

FWIW, Dremel's come with a 5 year warranty.  They will either repair it or replace it within 48 hours of receiving the damaged one.  I have 3 Dremels and have sent them in more than once.  Their customer service is excellent and they are pretty top notch when it comes to taking care of their customers.  I think they are well worth the investment (why I have 3).

Did you have the receipt of yours or did you just send it in? The one I borrowed was already beat to shit, some I'm thinking it was on its way out. But whatever, I still have to get the guy a new one LOL.

[CrackerTeg]

Covered the front end in bugs on my way to Miami.

[timot_one]

They can tell the warranty from the serial number.  I never sent in a receipt.  Sometimes Dremels just break.  I got one of mine back from repair and it broke within an hour of using it.  I think I was just too hard on it though.

[Jeff Likes Bagels]

Well, it looks like I'm going to be buying my own dremel because my friend doesn't even have one, and none of the places around here rent them out. Does the brand matter? I'll probably get it from either Lowe's or Home Depot, whichever is cheaper. Should I get battery-powered or electric? Lowe's sells a brand called "Dremel". How creative.

Edit: My grandfather has one, so I'll be borrowing that. However, he's recommending using a jigsaw.

get the electric...

BACK ON TOPIC:

[hondaguy214]
