tire is hitting the top of the wheel well

[jaymoneyyy]

My rear tires are hitting the top of the wheel well on turns.. is this because of bad shocks?

I installed lowering springs, after a month they settled in nice. I also started to hear rubbing in rear on turns, turned out it was the fender well material was a little low. I pushed it up and have'nt rubbed again.

Check that, and if that is not the problem, post your set up and mods so people can help.

Adjust one of the following to fit. Offset/Tire Size/Camber.

It sounds like camber adjustment might be a good free option, or tire size next.

...Well that's why haha. If you wanna be hella low, get some hella camber. And hella more tires.

So I need to keep them butterfly? I got the camber kit so I can straighten out the camber, it hits when the camber is straight.. this is what has me confused.

With a three inch drop you will need negative camber regardless, unless you have like 14 inch wheels.

Yeah, you're going so low that you need camber for clearance.
