Re-upping my non-stagger swagger with 9 +35 TC105N's






I rub on bumps with my drivers side rear wheel, which is odd since I thought the fronts would rub. I looked at it and my drivers side rear actually sticks out more than my passenger one, it was like that with the RPF1's too but neither side rubbed so I never thought much of it.

You're not the only one sir. Scroll down to post #7 on this thread I started about 18 months ago.

Nothing a new alignment or a small amount of fender work won't fix. But I agree +35 is a great offset, a little more poke than a +45 but still able to run correct tire sizes without too much effort.

Maybe Spoon Rigid Collars will help? I remember reading something about subframes having a slightly bigger hole than the bolt to allow for easier installation and Rigid Collars were designed to remove this variance, and forces the bolt to go thru the subframe straight. Could possibly be the subframe slightly shifted because of this? I don't know if it would account for one side having more poke than the other, but it could...

This is a picture from SpeedHunters of a GT-R subframe and what the Rigid Collar addresses.
