What size wheels you got?
I guess you mean it only rubs on the back?
I have 15's and I have lowered it 4cm on a 5door and I had similar probs.It doen't rub on the arch itself.It rubs on the plastic cover of the arch OR on the screws that hold the plastic thing on the arch.You can remove these and just glue the thing ontop of the arch with some silicone OR you can just use another,shorter, screw.I glued mine.Basically even if you have rims>15s I guess it's the same thing.

yeah mate i have 15s, they look wicked with the wide offset and i really dont want to change them so your idea sounds ace, do you mean they rub on the splash panel on yours and what offset are your wheels
