slamming rear e46 help!!

[Elfanatico9]

the amount of stretch is perfect for now. i don't wanna stretch the tire more. i think i do have some room to go down, not much though. i already took out the "unneeded" collars. do you have any picts for this fitment??

this guy got the perfect fitment. i want the rear look similar to that just 2 fingers higher.

That's actually my car. try lowering your coils more. Might do the trick. If you want 2 fingers higher then mine. I'm actually gonna order my camber arms today. i say you get them. just a personal opinion

Camber arms and wind it down.

Have you adjusted the stock control arms to see if thats enough first?

And it doesnt rub anymore? Taken the adjusters out the back?

it still does occasionally. over big bumps only and when i have 3 people inside the car

How much are you looking to stretch tire man? You could run a 215-35 on the 9.5 and a 225-35 on the 10.5. 225 on a 10.5 might be a little sketch for some people idk. A stretch is just left to ones own preference. I have a friend that has that stretch and size and it should provide you with some more clearance to avoid rubbing. Do you have more room to go down on your rear coils? I know on my F&F coils I took out some of the "unneeded" collars and left 2 in there. Shortened the shock and its almost tucking rim. Camber arms in my opinion would help but you would have to be able to go lower with your coils. Youd tucking rim and not aiming for fitment since they are 19's. Fitment would sit a lil higher

Wait, they only rub over bumps.......

Sounds fine to me then.

go with the camber arm and slam more?

You created the username stance and are bitching about rubbing?


Figure it out.

I'm asking for suggestions from people abt the camber arms or maybe someone else has experienced something similar to help me out so i don't waste money for the kit and end up not helping me to solve the problem.

rolling, pulling and shaving have been done

I fitted camber arms hoping they would help me go lower on 17x9 ET5 with a 205/40 and it didn't, but I haven't had it professionally aligned.

I don't think there is much else you can do with tyres anything less than 235 on 10.5 would be quite scary.

Not too far off where mine sit, what tyres are they? How bad is the rubbing? Tyre sidewall all still there?

tyres are achilles and they only rub occasionally, on big bump only. sidewall still good. i just fitted it last month so everything still good.

are you suggesting me not to get the camber arm??

Need better pictures, ones of where it touches the arches, and of your arch rolling so far.

i dont hv it. cant really tell from the picts i posted, can you?

What tire size are you running on those 19's? Rim and tire specs would help a bit man. Camber arms would help a tad if you want to go lower on 19's. I'm a firm believer that you can slam on 19's. I'm not saying your not gonna rub here and there, but with proper sizing, rolling and measurements, you can do it. If that's your plan of course.

Yeah it would be way easier if you were on 18s. :/ I think it looks good for what you've got now.

What is chamber?


Camber doesn't go low. Offsets don't make it lower. Adjusting arches doesn't make it lower either.

What coilovers are you on most importantly, do you have the rubber hats in there still, do you have the adjusters in there. If no to them all time to get out the angle grinder.

I swear that last sentence in teh first paragraph wasn't there when I read it first haha woops.

Ignore my reply.

Pretty much the total reverse of what I said. If you want to go much lower, bin the 19s for a smaller wheel.

I'm on BC coilover. by rubber hats do you mean bumpstop?? what adjusters are we talking abt here?

i was thinking to change to 18s but my car wouldn't be able to make it through the driveway. so would stick with 19' for now

Sounds like he's rubbing, not unable to spin the coils farther down.


So in that case, camber, offsets,and adjusting arches does help


OP you gotta post pics

help alot? btw driveway in my flat is really steep. once my car reaches the highest point, wheels will touch the guard. should i go lower??
