i just got a set of 17x7 Team Dynamic Prorace 1.2, running it with eibach springs installed 2 years ago.

the problem initially started even during installation already, since the store that shipped me the wheels provide me with a pair of correct hub centric rings and a pair of some different looking ones, are they suppose to be different (like for the fronts and the backs?)

i got that problem solved by getting it replace at some wheels shops, supposingly things should be fine, right? now im getting intense rubbing from all 4 corners, mostly on the left and back tho. what possibly can cause these? since the wheels are at a good 45ET offset, im assuming it's due to sagging springs? i really need to get this rubbing issue fixed, it's chewing up my rubbers quite abit, and it has only been a few days!

lastly, the steering wheel is shaking rather violently during any speed over the 50kph, but the car will travel in a straight line. but it's just very abnormal to see any pieces of equipment to shake like this, right?

any help on these problems will be greatly appreciated! thanks guys! really need some help on these issues quick, thanks !

 

its just too bad..
haha im kidding.

come on guys. help this fellow out.

 

well, the only thing i can think of is your rims may be imbalanced now. when was the last time you balanced your wheels? for the best balancing machine out there, i would suggest finding a shop that is equipped with the Hunter GSP9700 machine. see the link to find a store http://www.gsp9700.com/pub/search/findgsp9700.cfm

 

He JUST got the rims, dragonwang..

..are they balanced AT ALL?

 

What size tyres are you running? even lowered I can't think why there would be that much interference w/ offset 45

The vibration.... thinking maybe the hubrings are incorrect and the wheel isn't sitting right on the hub? Shot in the dark on that one, but it sounds good...

 

i think there is definitely sth wrong with the hub rings!~ im actually running 45 tires, i also think thats a mistake too? the tires should be balanced, aren't they suppose to do that when they put ur tires on?

 

Well, take off a wheel and examine the hub ring(s).

It should fit snug but not tight on the hub and the same inside the wheel. If not, you'll know.

 

if its not any of the above... u might want to examine your tire and your wheel... a bent wheel will shake violently...

i run eibachs on 45mm offset on 215/45-17 kumhos, and i got no rubbin... even at only -0.5 rear camber

 

it can't be bent, cause just got them brand new.. if it's bent out of the box, it seriously have some issue with manufacturing then..lol~

i got the wheels from outmotoring, just wondering is it possible for them to order the wrong offset or even width of the wheel? no offense to outmotoring in any way, just curious~

 

its possible to be bent in transit. do the wheels have any markings on the inside, most wheels have the size and offset either on sticker or on the wheel itself

 

the wheels just say 7x17
no mention of exact offset

 

I haven't seen any mention of tires, are you using the same ones that were on your old rims? Posting a picture of your setup might help, and let us know what size tires your running. 17x7 +45 is right in the ballpark on your wheel size. Based on what you posted, I'm suspicious of the spacers. Fronts & backs use the same spacer, there is no difference.
