I need some help, yesterday I try to put new rims and tires to my bus, BRM´s 15X5, and the problem is that in the back tire 195/60R15 rubs against the body, what should I have to do.

The offset of your wheel is the issue, you may be able to find a machine shop and get them to take some out of the back of the rim giving you more tyre space next to the body!

Any risk doing this, how many I have to take ok, or it depends of the space I need, somebody else that you know do yhis before?

Hi Mattd1984/Creation blue

How is the ride comfort if to lower the front just using the red9 ez coilover 2-4"? Am thinking to use this setup and maybe adding the WW 2.5" dropped spindles..any advice if to use this combination ?......thanks...

 

[mattd1984]

Hi mate

It is a nice ride, when you get the kit the shocks are setup already. For me it was a little harsh so adjusted the damper 1 click less and it was perfect for me.
