19x8 will rub



Not to say otherwise but I know of at least 1 CEGer who claims he ran 19x8 axis 7s w/a 45mm offset and had little rub. I believe it was lilbern who had that setup. I just dont understand.



IIRC his car was not low enough. My car is slammed to the ground and I rub like hell. At first it was the lip, but now it is the actual wheel liner in the front and rear.

Yes, lilbern said he ran 19x8's, 45mm offset, with 215's without any rubbing issues. He also stated he had a 3" drop on the car at the time. I posted my opinion on this subject many times. It seems like the tire size is more of an issue on the rubbing. Lilbern also stated he had some 18x8's with a 42mm offset. He said with 225's they rubbed.

Until I get under a car and actually see the clearance, I'm going to assume they will rub no matter what.
