I recently got my new wheels on and after driving around on them for awhile I checked to see if I had any clearance/rubbing issues.........and i found on my drivers side rear tire on the inside it rubs, but just a little so i did some investigating and it just seems to rub when i pull into my driveway or out of my driveway and Im pretty sure that's the only time it really rubs........and ive already done the BFH mod when i put them on just for a precaution.............so basicly i'd just like to get it figured out because the tires were not cheap and dont really feel like replaceing them even though the rub isnt to bad...........anyways my question is do you think a adj. panhard rod/bar would take care of this issue??


rim and tire size on the rears are 18x10.5 and tires are 295/35/18's

The adjustable panhard bar will center the differential, and in essence wheels in the wheel well. It will help the drivers side but it might bring the passenger side too close and cause it to rub.

a pan hard bar well fix it and hammer a little more and if you have to cut the bump stop

yea i already ground the bump stop way down so thats good to go......... and if i remember right it rubs on the outside of the passenger side wheel so a panhard bar should fix it im assuming

I lol'd.

If your lowered at all, an adj. PHB should take care of your problem. If its stock height (I cant tell by the sig pic really) I think a BFH stage 2+ would be sufficient.

everytime i cut something, remove and throw away crap i think "one day if someone buys this or i try to turn it back stock...theres gonna be a LOT of cursing myself" lol

thats why i got my dad to bring a tractor trailor canister home, i have all my stock crap in that (4wheelers and stuff too)

anyway an adjustable PHD SHOULD fix it

If you lower your car, it could pull the rearend towards the drivers side as nuch as 3/8 of an inch. Then you will need an adjustable pan hard to correct.
