:help:

Hi again .. have had some problems after installing my new rims/tyres

The size of the wheels are 205/45-16"

When I have llike 3 people in my car the tires hits (what sounds like beeing the chassi) in bumps ..

Have seen lots of people on the net that has had larger rims than me .. and haven't seen them mentioning this problem .

btw my car is a Toyota Carina e 93 mod.

Will lowering springs help ?

i have 195/50 - 15s (upgrading soon!!) which touched when we loaded the car. i found the key to saving your tyres is to replace the dampers. uprated monroe gas dampers stop the compression slightly and the rebound so the body has to be pushed down harder to touch the tyres. stiffer springs would help, but lowering springs may make the situation worse
