Vts wheels on vtr catching
My vtr is not lowered but has vts wheels on with standard 185/55/15 tyres had the front ones off today to do the ball joints and noticed they are catching on full lock is this normal?
Shall I just get some lower profile tyres?

if its just catching on one side it sounds like your steering rack is not adjusted equally, they should be.
