I didn't get an alignment for like 6 months after I did mine, hahaha

Slack as

[Samwise]

So i think my rear tyre is rubbing over some of the bigger bumps. Ive raised it 15mm roughly so its higher than the STi struts (i think) and it still rubs occasionally. 

 

Get your guards rolled.

Get your guards rolled.

+1 to the guard rolling

[Adam]

Wierd. I get no scrubbing! My guards are normal

[Barbbachello]

Sounds like ill be getting my guards rolled.

Thats why im confused Adam, its the same height as the STi suspension but still rubs. Im assuming it is the tyres, makes a whooop kinda noise. Theres no marks on anything on the tyres so it must just be kissing them

[Adam]

Maybe your alignment is slightly out??

Didnt think there was much alignment stuff in the rear? Spose its the best place to start, seeing as i need one anyway

[Adam]

Oh yeah, you don't have camber bolts do you?

[Barbbachello]

Nope. Im going to jack everything up to see if it is actually contacting on the tyre tomorrow then go from there

Gen2 with 215's on a oem +55 7" wheel should see zero scrubbing with non rolled guards even if top of tyre was level with guard.

 

Id definitely be taking the rear wheels off and having a look.

 

If/when you do want rears rolled, PM me.

Yeah agree with CRUISN on this one, have BC BR's all round. Tucks tyre in the rear and with non-rolled guards only scrubs with 2 people in the back, or if im by myself and Im really giving it some beans through some uneven cornering. Although this is with the dampening on full hard, but being as high as yours is by your description, it should be fine the way you have it set up.

 

Oh forgot to mention, this is on gen 4 gt +55 7" with 215's, or 2010 wrx +55 7" with 215's.

Maybe its fluid moving through the coil over? It seems a bit loud for that but 

[Barbbachello]

Couldn't find anything wrong behind the wheel. The sound is like often when I softened them to 6 so it may be the coil over or perhaps the top hat/Mount?

[CodeBurn3r]

ill look Thursday.. i might even bring a torch to make it look harder than it was last time

Also i have a guy to roll guards out east.. did mine and i was bloody happy with the job.. mine are flared and rolled on the front.

Was down in the Prahran area for some american food experiences. I parked next to a gen 1 liberty with WRX seats and black wrx wheels for the lols. Then when i came back i found an SVX had parked in front of me. Pretty sure its the first one ive ever seen

[Liberty]

I think I've only ever seen one white one since I knew what they were after joining SubyClub (because of the one that was for sale with plates YKOOZA). Haven't seen any since.
