Picked up my wheels yesterday looked great but i have a problem
The wheels are catching on the back bumper, so had to take them off . Guy at bodyshop said to fill the arch more so that it will push the bumper out more, im wanting to get the car's arches rolled and lowered at the same time. Im wanting to lower it 60mm but are a bit concerened it will catch any advice,or anyone had the same problem ?
What spring should i go for ?
cheers

What rear beam is he using? It sounds as though its 5inches too long lol. No idea how they can hit the back bumper as I used to have the same wheels!
