Ok, I have searched the archives and found alot about side wall rubbing on the strut cylinder. Well here is my dilema: My two front tires have worn through to the Chords. This is on the inside inch and a half of the Tread(foot print) of the tires. I have only had these for about 5,000 miles. I have KYB GR2 struts with H+r sport springs, 18x7.5 wheels and 215/35's tires. It looks like where the spring rest on the strut there is an extra little lip that hangs down and the tires rub on it. anyone have this problem?? If not what would be a solution??? thanks
