    Tires rubbing inner wheel well, help!?

    Yup, I heard no rubbing at all because the tires were already worn down. But when I threw the rears on to the front for the meantime, they rub like crazy and it's obvious. I'm trying to limit the driving I do on the MS3, but I won't have my replacement wheel/tires/spacers for another week or so...

    Tires rubbing inner wheel well, help!?

    I bought the car with the mods already on it and I'm assuming the tires had already been worn down almost completely. I never noticed any rubbing from the tires, in the ~6000 miles that I've had the car. However, once I swapped my rears onto the front (temporarily), I can feel the rubbing like...

    Tires rubbing inner wheel well, help!?

    I bought the car modded, but sometime this summer I want to upgrade to Koni Yellows, or just get a set of adjustable coilovers, probably BC.

    Tires rubbing inner wheel well, help!?

    I've run 235 in the rear, with no rubbing. My car was modded when I purchased it, so I'm not sure if the fenders have been rolled or not. Still debating 235/40, 225/40 or 225/45. Probably just going with 235's, as the 5mm spacer should help me enough to clear with no problem.

    It might be! I'm back and forth on whether or not I want to sell it. I'm trying to be practical and get a Civic/Fit, but those are boring every day. (Though I have a supercharged s2000 that I drive on weekends/track, but I also like having a fun DD.)

    Tires rubbing inner wheel well, help!?

    Yea I think I'm going with 235/40/18 with 5mm spacers, so that the tires match the rears. I am considering 225/40 but then they are slightly staggered from the rear.

    Tires rubbing inner wheel well, help!?

    It rubs on both sides, and I imagine it rubs when I turn the wheel either way. I need to look at it more this weekend. I moved my rear wheels to the front for the time being (I'd rather have the donut in the rear, on a non-drive wheel) and I can definitely feel the tires rubbing in the front...

    Tires rubbing inner wheel well, help!?

    Also, I did notice some wear on the struts themselves, but it was minor and didn't seem like it could be the cause.

    S2000 owner, just picked up 2008 MS3 for DD!

    Nice! I remember seeing a grey MS3 there! Yea that was definitely a fun weekend. Hopefully I'll see you at more track events next summer. Do you usually go to PCA-RTR events?

    stock stereo problems

    My 2008 Mazdaspeed GT with Bose does this too. I just got the car yesterday, so I'm still messing with everything. It's almost like some of the speakers have a lose connection and only kick on sometimes. very weird.
