Thanks guys, Appreciate the feedback.

Can anybody help me with some contact details for people who can shave my rear wheels?
The offset is too wide for the LCI and its touching the fender.

What size tyres you have on...and off set

i cant remember the offset ill just check one.
The tyre size is 265/35/19

That might be the problem right there, you should be running 265/30/19 on rear with 19's...I have the 265/30's with a 32 off set on the Msport suspension and it only touches on extreme dips on the road...even with 4 ppl in the car...:thumbs:

Thanks bud, I will just verify the offset.

For some reason the Michelin profile looks bigger than the Conti's i have in front even though they bboth 35 profile.

Know what you mean...I have the Goodyear A2 and they looked bigger than Michelins...I thought I had bought the wrong size tyres at one stage..

265/35 R19 should not be a problem if you're using rims with the correct off-sets. :dunno:

Will need to verify what the offset is first.

What size tyres are you running on the front? Profile is also affected by the width of the tyre, a 265/35/19 tyre will have a bigger profile than a 235/35/19.:thumbs:

Car looks great and i am not a fan of stepped dish wheels. Hope you come right with the offset.

Out of curiosity, what is a safe amount to machine off the rim before one starts to reduce its integrity? I would think it should be dependant on the design of the rim. Concave rims would probably have less metal to remove, compared to a more flat faced rim?
