90TGP Posted June 8, 2003 Report Posted June 8, 2003 Ok, last year I had my tires rotated on my TGP. Well as I looked at my car, I noticed that the front wheels [the rear ones] stick out farther then the back wheels [front wheels]. I was wondering if the rear wheels stick out farther then the front ones? I think I read somewhere that the rear wheels' central hub is slightly thicker then the front wheels' hubs. Because I have some rubbing issues right now and I think I can fixed it slightly by re-rotating the tires. Quote
Redfox340 Posted June 8, 2003 Report Posted June 8, 2003 Actually no. The front track vs. the rear track is in favor of the front at 59.5" versus the rear at 58.0". If the wheels are the same, you shouldn't have a rubbing problem; wonder if it's something deeper. - RedFox340 Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted June 9, 2003 Report Posted June 9, 2003 Yeah, quite the opposite, rear wheels are more tucked by quite a bit. I've thought about 1/2" spacers to equalize the track and improve the appearance, but decided against it since I'd lose hubcentricity. Quote
The Burning Rom Posted June 9, 2003 Report Posted June 9, 2003 Is the front subframe aligned? What size are the tires that are rubbing? Quote
