15633, Tire is paralell w/quarter panel will it rub?
Posted by mattm, Feb-11-03 04:51 PM
I have got a 97 eclipse with KYB AGX shocks/struts and also Eibach sportline drop springs rated at a 1.6 drop. Now i was wonder if anyone had a problem with there rear tires coming even with there rear quarter panels. I just dropped my car and havent really driven it yet so i dont know if there is going to be a problem and i am gettin a camber kit and an alignment, but it seems to me that my tire is directly underneath my quarter panels and i am afraid that when i hit a bump my tire is going to slam into my quarter panel either warping it or tearing up the tire. Need to know if i have to shave my quarter panel in some and tube out my wheel well in order for it to fit.

Mine rubs on large bumps or if someone is in the back seat, but it doesn't do anything to the fenders or the tires.
