Joeyb7 · 04-21-2013, 06:18 PM

So I installed 12mm BMS rear spacers yesterday as I probably won't be picking up new rims this season. I'm running a stock 2011 m sport suspension/rim setup and (sadly) the Bridgestone RFT 245/40/18 tire. Looks great, but oddly enough only the right rear tire is rubbing. It's bad over humps or taking a sharp left turn and I need to figure out a fix. The rub even happens at low speeds.

I don't want to have to get my fenders rolled as I thought that 12mm was definitely playing it safe as I'm not lowered.

Is anyone else running this setup with no problems? Any idea why only my right rear is rubbing (even when I'm the only passenger)? I emailed Terry @ BMS too and I'm waiting to hear back.

Thanks guys,
J
