I just got 993 Turbo Twist on my 924S. They fit great actually. But for some reason when I go above forty, my rear driver side tire rubs on the out edge into the inner edge of my fender. I can't stick my finger between the tire and the fender on the driver side, but on the passenger side I can put my finger between the fender and tire. I'm assuming I'm going to have to roll my fenders? Or is there some way to adjust my suspension, or smaller tires?

just go higher on the driver side eccentric. but...are u lowered already? or are the tires too big for the car?

Tires are too wide for the car. Each chassis sits a little bit more left or right compared to the suspension.

Driver side eccentric? Uhmm... idk what that is. Lol. I'll seach. Thanks. I know my suspension isn't stock, but it's not that lowered. If I put my original 15 phonies on, there is loads of space between the top fender and tire. I don't think the tires are too big, it just seems like they are too tall on that left side.



Ok. So the rear tire sizes are 265/35-18 right now. What would I need to go down to so they'd fit? They aren't that much wider than my rear 928 rims I had on.

Thanks for the responses guys!

search, i had the same problem with 255s on boxster crabs. i had to grind the lip of the fender because i couldnt get it to roll. it took me a number of tries to grind enough off. i think i finally got it right about three days before the car was stolen.

Po924S

Ouch. Sorry about your luck man. I'd be Ok. Well I just called the tire place, and they said I could go down width size. Or should I just try grinding? Is that safe... with paint, and all? Lol. I'll search right now.

The easiest thing would be to put on fender flares - something like what the 944 has.

Po924S

No.... never. Haha. If I wanted a 944. I would have bought one.



And that picture is veryyyyyyy confusing for me! But I'll study it. Lol. What your guy's opinions of the grinding method?

"Edit" Ok don't cut.... roll. Lol.

Charlie

Go down a size.

theykallmekem

lol that pic is bad ***.


EDIT: YAYY 1000 POSTS !!!

Po924S

Yeah that's probably what I'll do. If I drive it and it rubs, how bad is it? If I go slow enough, it doesn't rub.

Oh and congrats theykallmekem. Lol.

It'll blow the tire, the tire might shred and dent up the fender. Oh, and you might get into an accident when she blows...
