    Default Wagon Rear Wheel Scrubbing

    Hey all!

    just got my VT wagon lowered 2.5 inches and got the camber kit done.

    a couple things.

    1 - the camber on the passenger side seems more angled than the drivers. called the shop who did it and they said it was perfectly normal..... not sold on that.. any other ideas?

    2 - The rear wheels scrub under acceleration and over (small) bumps. will rolling the guards fix this? my only issue is that the screw that appears to attach the rear quarter panel to either the chassis or the bumper looks to be a rub point.. and im guessing that it wont be able to be rolled (it has a support behind it)

    3 - im currently running 225 width tyres on 16inch rims. they appear to balloon out on the sidewall a bit. will fitting 18inch rims with 235/40s (less ballooning) bring the overall width on the tyre down, and lessen the scrubbing?

    other than that it looks awesome!

    any help would be greatly appreciated.
