Has anyone experienced scrubbing with 16 inch ET45's and if so what did they do? The car is not lowered but was scrubbing today with 4 medium sized people in the car. Cheers

I'd say remove the arch bolts.

That should help. Hopefully someone with et45 16's will reply.

ive got et45 15s and ive only got enough room to cram a leaf in between the arch and tyre so i could see how you could be getting scrubage.
what width are they?

Probably because the 15's are a lot wider than the 17's dimwit.

Has anyone seen Mr Whippy's car?

Probably doesn't have one.

Does he not understand that cars dont magically become fully modded over night?

I think he's called Mr Whippy because he has a bad case of premature ejaculation.
Shootin before he has even got it out.

Get a life for gods sake! No, for our sake!
