Default wheel rubbing

my mate has got a s1 turbo and has got a set of 8x17 compomotives on it with 215/40 toyo tyres

has anyone else got the same setup or a similar setup did you have any problems with rubbing? if so how did you cure it

cheers billy

im running that setup on my mk3 se cab.Mine are th2's. I had to trim the rear arches back as much as poss,and trim the fronts down a tad. Ive got no rubbing whatsoever and is quite low too.It all depends on what the offset is of the wheels on his car? mine is et38 which is spot on!!
