So with your offset you were basically at the same as oem + 12mm spacer? So not even limiting to 12mm spacer would prevent the rubbing then in theory?

How’d you mount the mesh? Have pics?

Correct. But my tires are also 285.

Ok got it. So possible 12mm on the stock 275s may still avoid?

I don't know for sure, but I don't recall any rubbing when I had stock tires on my new wheels, so probably ok.

I hot glued the shit out of it to hold it on there, then I used rivets to mount it securely.

Just feedback, but I’d probably look online for automotive-style or grade mesh so it looks better. It’s a new car, take the extra time to do the job right.

I considered using a black grill, compared it to the RKP which uses a black grill, and it almost makes no difference. You can still see right through it. You won't notice unless you're making an effort to see it.

RKP version:

Some good solutions for future reference

I was having the same issue but once I lowered the car on KW HAS it solved that problem.

I forgot to post these pictures here. This is with Michelin PS4S tires and 15mm Future Classic spacers.

I heard rubbing when I was reversing into the spot right after I installed them. But driving the car Sunday night and Monday morning I didn't hear any rubbing. When I get the car back from PPF I'll continue to monitor the situation. If it continues, I'd rather just swap to 12mm spacers up front than mess with the fender liner.

And you’re running spacers?

Yes, I was running the 18f/15r spacers on stock height and had this issue, going lower on KW HAS fixed it for me

Okay awesome. I'll hold off on butchering my liners.

Been following the recent rub issues as I was planning on 15f 12r originally but then started thinking bout 12 squared or none. But if we are seeing relief after lowering that's a good sign since mine is coming with HAS port installed. Definitely staying tuned for more community feedback.
