Having tire rub on right side of F-body Hey guys im having some tire rub issues but its only on the right side. My set consist of:
305/35/18 on a 10.5in wheel
Bump stops have been removed
KYB AGX struts
Stock rear springs with heater hose mod as isolator
Fronts have Eibach's with KYB's
Lower control arms and adjustable panrod bar.
The left side sits fine and has no issues. The right side tire will hit the very outside lip of the quarter and its cutting into the side wall of my tire. I did manage to do a little tweeking to where it does not rub anymore till my quarters get rolled. But what im wondering is if this could be a shock problem causing this. I have tried to adjust my panrod bar thinking that side may be pushed out too far but still no help. Anyone got any suggestions or is this common with this set-up i have.

Rolling your fenders will help alot. You can do it your self with a hammer and some tlc. Just dont get stupid and whack the hell outta em. I found that a ball pin hammer worked best for me. I still have a little rub and so I am prob gonna try out some airbags in the back. And its just when I launch the car too.

Look under your car, is the PHB level, higher or lower on the passenger-side (Do this on level surface)?
If the PHB's level or lower on the passenger-side you'll want the tire a little closer to the driver-side fender lip (phb set longer).
If the PHB's higher on the passenger-side you'll want both tires set the same.
