Arch liner catching

[Grandpa Joe]

After fitting the cooksport springs, Cup wishbones and 205/50/15 tyres on my Ph1 I'm getting scrubbing on full lock.

I'm sure this is nothing new so I was wondering what others have done. Trimmed the arch liners or removed them?

Tyres are wrong size.

Should be 195/45 Or 205/45

Edit. Just seen they are 15's

 

[Grandpa Joe]

It's due to the increased caster

 

[Feates172]

Yeah lol.

I'd shave bits off etc. look crap with them missing IMO.

Although, they also look tatty all cut up.

It'll receive a bit of trimming for the brake ducts so I might fiddle with it whan I do them. I might be able to heat it and shape it out of the way perhaps.

Trim the piece that covers the bumper bracket, I know that's where it catches on mine with sportlines and 16" wheels.

 

[Grandpa Joe]

I'm guessing mine will be the same. I shall have a go by the bracket then cheers

I used a big Birmingham screwdriver and mine clear fine now I cut the bits off the arch liner that were damaged and used duct tape to re-seal any holes, a bit rough but it's under the arch and you can't see anything now the crap back under there, I'm running 205x45 ADO8's on a standard Cup Turini.

Ph1's have a different setup on the front bumper etc.

Took my arch liners out.
