Hey guys , have had my yaris lowered for about a month now ! No real scrubbing so far unless I have a fatty in the back !! hehe . :wacko:

But in the last week , I have noticed in scrubs in the back left , and this appears to be caused by the fuel pipe !!! , not really a major problem just keep the peeps out the back unless neccessary + only really scrubs when goin fast !!

But it is also starting to scrub when goin over bumpy roads , not pot-hole ridden , but roads which go up and down alot ! can someone explain why ! ?? :help:

I managed to resolve alot of scrubbage tho , through putting my hand underneath the arch and believe it or not scooping about four to five handfulls of muck :o , that had been compacted , that was straight after i had power washed it , the water obviously didnt reach !! :o

Sorry for the long message , but every one in my family and my girlfriend is fed up of me talking about the yaris so I though i would tell all u guys !! :D

it's more than likely settled a bit more than when first lowered, that's why your getting a bit of scrubbing

what size wheels and tyres do you have and how much has your car been lowered by

i cant see how it can be scrubbing on the arch on 17's unless the wheels or tyres are too wide im running 19x7 wheels on 215/35/19 tyres on 45ml drop and have no problems at all. try changing the tyres for a lower profile.

I have same setup, sounds exactly the same with it only rubbing going up and down hills etc. The rubbings not as bad as everyone says :P (im using a 38 offset by the way!)

I've found the rubbing is much less (gone even?) when you take the little black plastic arch linings out of the rear :thumbsup:
