    hey guys...
    I'm running kosei k3 formula
    225/45/17 5 lugs 16x7j ET36(I know it's a wrong offset but I was full enough not to look at it when I was buying of the wheels..maybe I didn't knew a lot about offset or I was so focus on these wheels cos I liked them)
    at the front I am rubbing a bit but at the rear is where I have the biggest problem...the wheels come out strait to the fender...so this is where I am rubbing not the inside...
    so what do you think I should do?
    You know I really like those wheels and I don't want to change them...
    some people told me to hit the inside of the fender so it'll come up a bit...
    an other one(at honda) told me to take the wheels to the lathe and cut off/rubber a bit form the inside where the lugs are(just some mm)....but I don't know if this is to risky
    I don't know if I go to 215/45/17 if I'll be ok...
    oh..I am running the stock suspension and it's some kids of 3 space between the tire...I even thought about put some coilovers(thing that I will do in the future anyway) making it more stiffer
    any help and ideas is wellcome...
    and sorry about my English...you know how we Greeks are..haha!!!

    i know, but im rubbing in the rear with 205s and stock camber settings, musty told me to run -1 degree of camber when i was talking to him in atlantic city...

    apparently it will work, im just surprised it rubs with 205s

    Have you try putting the 16X7 +33 in the back? Will it rub?

    The reason I'm asking because I have a set of rims in that size and was think running 225/45 or 225/50.
