Rubbing



  182
Think I'm in the right section..

182 is lowered on apex 40mm. Getting some rubbing on the front when turning. Any way to rectify this? Spacers?

I wouldn't say the car in the pics is more than 40mm lower. mine is about 25-30mm lower (measured from the ground to the subframe before and after) and it rubbs like hell when hard cornering (on hairpins mostly).
I wouldn't even think of going lower than this, the shocks would remain out of travel and with the slightest bump you will hit the bump stops.
On the rubbing: if yours rubs on the bumper bracket do as in the pics above (you are lucky if so, mine rubs on the chassis near the braket)

Good point lol.Although no @cs_dave i could clearly see the passenger side rubbing and adjusted the arch liners to suit. But the drivers side is not so evident
