I'm having some serious rubbing issues with my new Cragar rims. Just got them installed a few days ago and it hasnt stopped raining sinse (waitng for the rain to stop to get pics).
Here's the problem, I had 245/75-16 BFG AT's on my stock steel rims (16x7...not sure of BS). So I bought Cragars 16x7 with 4'' BS. Now, they rub really bad on the back portion of the front wheel well when I'm turning sharp a slow speeds (like in a parking lot). I wish I had a picture of the place they rub but I'll try to explain....there is a wedge of plastic that shoots out twards the tire at the lower aft section of the front wheel wells. Why are they there???? thats what I'm rubbing on!!! I'm fully capable of cutting them off and repairing the hole with some sheet plastic or fiberglass. But, that's a little evasive.
Anyone have any other ways that I could solve this rubbing problem??
Its incredibly embarrassing... especially when the tires are wet, It a really loud squeal, sounds like I'm running over a dog!!!
