:: Lexus GS300 - 20" rims rear rubbing ::

Hi all,

I'm having issues with my new 20" rims. There's rubbing when doing sharp turns up or down the hill. The setup is as follows:
- front - Lenso ES7 8.5 et 45 - 245/30/20
- rear - Lenso ES7 9.5 et 45 - 285/25/20

The car - Lexus GS300 - 2006 - is at factory setup so far. As already mentioned there's a bit of rubbing at rear - pics attached. Attachment 5030,Attachment 5031,Attachment 5032,Attachment 5033
If anyone could help me with solving the problem - I've been thinking of new Tanabe DF210 springs that will make the chassis more stiff preventing the rubbing or maybe a camber kit or narrower tyre?

Please advise.

Many thanks,

Rafi

Smaller width tires. Do 205/30/20 on the 8.5 & 235/20/20 9.5 then you should be good! Tyres are too big on those rims! Tyrestrecth.com check it out

Fronts are currently at 245/30/20. What about putting the fronts to the rears and buy new fronts 225/35/20?
