wrong offset
 
i unfortunately bought my wheels with a 40 offset. lets just say there isnt much sidewall left on one of my tyres. fronts fitted beautifully with no scrubbing but the rears......had to get guards rolled but there isnt much lip on the rear so have to get it panelbeated to be trully clear of scrubbing. although the 40 offset gives it a wider and meaner stance.

how wide are they? My wheels are the same offset at 7" wide and they don't rub. All it took were some 5mm spacers.

tyres are 215/35r18.
wheels are lenso speedsix.

Holy shit ya you're rubbing. A good 5mm of problems there at least. So sorry you didn't see the fitment guide sooner. WEll glad it worked out and you got to do some Panel beating.

The backpad wasn't thick enough to shave anything off?
