18x9.5 +45 wheels inside rubbing?

[ISawANip]

Hi Everyone,

I recently put on some Volk TE37SLs 18x9.5 +45 with 265/45/18 Hankook RS4s with Eibach Prokit springs and 1.5 degrees of camber.

I was rubbing on the fender liner, but fixed it after folding the tab in. But the rubbing continued, and so I realized I'm now rubbing on the inside strut tower.
Has anyone run into this before? I thought this would be a pretty conservative set up.

I'm trying to avoid running spacers, since I'm planning on tracking , but any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Why did you choose 265/45 over 265/35? Is the wheel or tire rubbing? Can you take more/better pics of the contact area?

40 series tire would probably been a better choice than a 45. It may be too tall.

265 45 is to much .. I’m running 265 35 18 lowered on swifts no problem

The 45 series tire is too tall, you will need either 255/40 or 265/35 tires to fit with no issues. Thats the common tire sizes I've seen fellow members run.
