Simmons F90s on a Celica Mon, 21 October 2002 16:16 Go to next message
Hi everyone

I own a TA22 Celica and i just bought a set of Simmons F90 16s second hand. Anywayz, when i got around to putting them on, the rear ones fit fine but the front ones...the fronts hit the shocks and i can't put them on. I was thinking spacers but I don't really know...any ideas? Thanks.

Julian

spacers are illegal but are one possibility.

can always get the offset changed but thats going to cost a bit.

is it the rim or trye that touches the strut?

it's the tyre that hits, but i think the rim will too if there wasnt a tyre to stop it Razz

The rims you bought clearly have the incorrect offset for you car. Apart from being illegal, this also does bad things to the chassis dynamics. You should consider selling your rims and buying something that fits properly, or get your existing ones modified if possible.
