Facing a Small Issue

[springz]

So2al Fanny ... ( Musical Question ) lol kidding ( Tech. Question ) ...

Only 2 ppl can Ride My E36.... Only me And the passenger ....
when Someone sits at the bk ... The Wheel Starts hiting The Body i guess ...
u hear This ( gkfjeijfijkdjg ) ...

is it Normal ?? ... Wheel Size ( 45/215 ) ... Sport Springs Not Stand. {Stock}

[Bashar M.]

with 215 at the back u should be way far from any rubbing issues....check ur alignment might be off.

and also please provide what is ur rear rims offset (ull read on the rim ETXX) find the number and tell us as that might also be ur problem...

[SewerSideUp]

You problem is lowering springs coupled with stock dampers (shock absorbers). And, that your rims have low ET. Normal solution would be to return to OEM springs or higher ones.

[Ayham]

Replace your shocks with Koni or Bilstein, problem solved.

[mahmoud_bedewi]

it might be rubbing the shocks and not the body, if so it is offset related and u might need a spacer

[Ayham]

Shocks/tire contact happens at the front upon turning the steering wheel when the rim size is oversized....Rear rubbing is tires rubbing against the fender.

trace the rubbing

i experienced rear wheel (205 mm wide) rubbing the tank pipe when passengers ride at the back, so yes u r right the tire won't rub the shock at the back but it can rub other components so as bruno said "trace the rubbing" then u can decide if it is offset or else

[MR.E36I]

Normal if your car is lowerd, try to rise up by replacing your springs or harder shocks


good luck

Thnx Guys ...
I don Think rising the car up is a good idea ... it'll look Bad..
And The Rubbing is only on the Rear Tires Nothing on the Front ...
I think i should Harder the Shocks but am still not sure if thats the issue ...
The car is Normal with two passengers ... but it starts rubbing on the turns when someone sits at the back ... Only The Rear Tires..

[M_Powerholic]

Will see it when we next meet ! ;)

Probably some hard shocks will do ! :bow:
