It is possible they could rub if the offset was way out or the wheels were aligned incorectly.

yep you need the correct offset wheels or they will scrub. my bro's got 17's on his looks <I thought I could get past the swearing filter - what a sad muppet I am eh?>in sweet any one who;s seen the car will tell ya! ;)

dunno wot his offset is its in the forum somewhere

[s0cks]

I got 16's with -30mm springs and no rubbing problems. Offset 38mm.

[earpl]

offset is correct, supporting 195/50/15's. tis rubbing at the back offside on the line where the bumper joins the bodywork.

[knightrider]

i guarantee ur offset is ET35 i had them and it rubbed the best is ET38

[earpl]

it dont rub no more i sorted it at dinner time.

[Robie]

You had a dump and were lighter so it stopped rubbing?

[earpl]

I'll rub you!

[Robie]

lowering mine on monday...I git the proper springs and the rear shocks this time.Am only going for a 30mm drop.Eibach springs and koni shocks all around

[earpl]

not at the back your not. has only got Mcphearson struts at the front.

[yaris30]

afraid so. :D .I have only an ordinary yaris so thats why i have the shocks and all

[varis_yaris]

i fink it depends on the shape of the tyre more than nefing esle because some tyres have rounded walls and others have big thick walls.......

nope itll go lower than 30mm

the Koni shocks are alot shorter than OE and pull it down further, i made that mistake!

[yaris30]
