stock suspensions so far.. have trd springs in the garage that are still in package.. might be getting 10mm spacers now after having read the wheel offset page to achieve the flush look and fix the problem. yay or nay??

Before you buy spacers first figure out where it is rubbing. Outside by the fender? Inside by the Suspension? If it rubs outside and you buy spacers it will make it worse. If it rubs inside and you buy spacers it will make it better. -------------------- |

I believe it has been rubbing from the inside due to the +42 offset and stock suspension setup.. so spacers should fix the problem right? -------------------- -----------
