fender trying to eat my tire

[lancesT/A]

ok i have a newly built 408.... the problem im havin is when i punch it the passenger rear quarter panel is biting the tire. how do i fix this. the car has the eibach prokit, adjustable panhard, and 3 point subframe connectors. i ordered a adjustable torque arm. but what else do i need to solve this problem. rear control arms?? race shocks??? whats the most effective route.

tires are 315/35 17. the car is an auto with a ss4000 stall. ive already bent the inside lip of the rear quarter upwards but problem still occurs


any input would be greatly appreciated

big fuckin hammer mod, its the inside of your wheel well thats most likely rubbing

[lancesT/A]

haha ya i bent it up quite a bit but its still rubing not as bad but doing it none the less

[basballny2]

so you rolled the fender lip and BFH mod it?

[lancesT/A]

ya i cut notches on the lip so it would bend easier and i smacked the hell out of it with junior (mini sledge) its no longer biting the tire but rubbing it pretty good

[basballny2]

ya but you did that to the lip, my question is did you do it to the inside of the fender well also?

ya but you did that to the lip, my question is did you do it to the inside of the fender well also?

i did smooth out the inside of the wheel well yes but it wasnt making it that far i did it as a precaution il check again tho .. cant hurt

[basballny2]

check and let me know, my guess it your guna see some rubbing in there with 315's and the car being lowered

[lancesT/A]

the only are i see rubbing its still rubbing the inside lip that has been bent over i guess i need to tighten up my suspension if the torque arm doesnt stop it then i guess il go with rear lower control arms unless someone has a better suggestion

Adjust the panhard bar to shift the rear slightly toward the drivers side. What shocks do you have?
