Title: Offset on mags Post by: Not Happy Jan on December 04, 2011, 08:08:14 PM Hello everyone
I have a set of mags which I tried to put on the sedan today . The offset seems to be wrong as it rubs on the top control arm on full lock. Is there anything that can be done to fix this? Spacers of some sort??or are they no good for an FC ??? ??? I'm sick of changing wheels. Today I took the set of mags off the wagon and replaced then, Then I took the cross plys off the sedan and put on the mags the took them off again as I changed the rear wheel cylinders and then put them back on, and I liked the look of it... ....then after the rubbing I took the mags off and replaced them with the cross plys again. :P Nick Title: Re: Offset on mags Post by: FCRB26 on December 04, 2011, 08:43:15 PM See if they rub on upper ball joint as standard HR were flat and aftermarket have the top bit for the grease to sit in i found a different brand op ball joints.

it doesn't hit the ball joint it just knicks the tip of the rear of the upper control arm and scrapes just under the lip/rim of the wheel.

Pity as I have 2 sets of the mags and both of them rub.
I might try the local tyre place first and see if they have any ideas. Title: Re: Offset on mags Post by: FCRB26 on December 08, 2011, 05:09:56 PM I have 2 sets of mags here US racers and F90 simmons both bloody rub on the outer lip >:(
