Just bought some new alloys off a member on here. put them on earlier and the back tyres started to rub against the suspension arm? if this isnt the suspension arm. its the part opposite to the arch on the other side of the wheel.

the spacers supplied were 26mm.. what can you reccomend? 30 mm?

thanks

If you get bigger spacers, make sure you get the hubcentric ones, i brought some cheap ones for mine and they caused the car to judder when i braked.
