have lowered my gsi by 35mm front and rear, the rear scrubs abit when theres just me in and if i have a passenger it scrubs really bad.
was thinking of grinding the lip slightly and rolling it out.
any suggestions peeps?

on most corsa they tend to rub more on the left, dont no why, very strange!! You could either roll inner arch or maybe use bump stops! or get a better offset!- Thats what im doing!!

35 offset wont be helping. I think they rub more on one side do to the fuel filler pipe, so I heard anyway.
