Like the title says, my front TT2's rub on the black plastic on the inside of the wheel wells when the wheels are turned. The right one even catches the bottom corner of the front bumper. It's drivable, but I'd just rather not be rubbing at all. They are 17x9.5's, with Nitto 275/40-17 tires. Anyone with any suggestions? Not sure on the backspacing, I bought them used

Check the back side of the wheel spokes for offset info.

Yeah, either post the part number or measure
the backspacing... It should be 7inches.

Could be the front end alignment, what's your alignment specs?

Stock ride height?

Thanks for the help guys, just went out to look for the offset, couldn't figure it out from the markings, will post pictures in a few minutes after my camera battery charges.

I'm at stock ride height, not sure on the alignment specs (I know, not much help). I haven't gotten an adjustment since I bought the car 2 years ago, and it was bone stock. Stock alignment if there is such a thing?

Pics of the inside left front wheel




Picture of where the tire rubs on left front (same on right front, just catches the very bottom corner of the bumper too)

I don't see anything in the photos that's tell the wheel offset.

IMO, if its been at least 2yrs since your car has had a front-end alignment, take it in and get it re-aligned. Have then set it with less +caster (+5 or less), or less then it currently has, and a little - camber (-.1 to-.5) if possible.
You don't really need any negative camber, but it's good for handling.
