Hi folks, I recently picked up some Apex Arc-8 wheels for my 135i and fitted them with 235/40/18 Pirelli PZeros up front and 265/35/18 Pirelli PZeros on the rear. I wasn't expecting them to rub from what I'd read, but have just had the rear wheels off and found that the driver's side rear (my car is RHD) has a rub mark on the inner wheel arch liner. Pics below:
There is no rub mark on the passenger side. Now what would be my best course of action here? A small spacer, like 2 or 3mm? And what sort of spacer do I need? Do I need to extend the hub lip at all to ensure the wheel seats properly? And when people get extended bolts, what do they do about the locking wheel bolt?
Sorry about all the questions, but I just want to get this sorted ASAP before damage is done. Also, when I jack the rear end up, both wheels end up resting on the wheel arch liner. As such, I can't rotate the wheels when they're in the air, which seems dangerous to me, as I don't want the wheels suddenly stopping when I'm driving, or even just dragging.
Also, you may notice the different dampers on my car - the car has an aftermarket suspension kit, but the rear end is the same height as stock, it isn't slammed or anything.
Thanks in advance.
