As you would know i have lowered my vy but know the gards are rubing.

yer they say before they roll ya gaurds that the paint may crack but i know a few people that have had it done and their paint has never cracked. I would prefer to go to a tyre shop to get it done rather then a panel shop as the tyre shop would probally do it more often then a panel shop.

19s should not rub i had the same size on my vy with superlows and it never rubbed,i guess it must be a different offset.

And yes if you were to get them rolled by a panelbeater he cant guarantee the paint wont crack i know because im a panelbeater and get asked this question offen.

You may have the same problem as my clubby. The offset is wrong. Take of a wheel and check the numbers on the back. My offset is 38 which is incorrect. They should be around 44. My wheels rub when I throw it into a corner (not lowered). I will have to replace my 19's ( fitted when purchased ) when I get the cash.
