got a problem, drivers side tyre is rubbing on the coilover, like bad, can smell burning rubber and theres rubber all over the rim, think I need to remove the helper spring and wind the cup up out of the way.

U sure the tyre is same size? Sounds daft but I had a tyre that rubbed and it was a tad bigger never new till I checked lol. Try swapping it over to other side

Different make Tyres? When I had lensos had 195's on front and back but fronts had slight stretch and rears didn't they was different makes front to back. Just cos there same size doesn't mean they actually are if you get what I mean

that's what im thinking, the new tyre has a big sidewall, il try another wheel on it first, if its the same, then ill remove the helper.

will probably only just be rubbing, 2mm spacers will clear it.

That looks quite smart. I think with a few subtle changes like colour coded door handles, wing mirrors and Dturbo bumper it would look really nice.

Good shout! Just please don't go PH2 or 3 they really do not suit a sedan IMO.

Chris is saying it'll only just be rubbing, so a couple of mm would probably clear it. Fit bigger spacers or remove the helpers, they're your options. I had the same issue with my PR3s except to the point that the wheels wouldn't go on. I removed the helpers as it was already running 20mm spacers.

They don't suit the sedan IMO, look far too big.

sorry but dont think they suit. but thats imo...if you like them...then crack on!
I would try swapping for a rear wheel with a different make of tyre...amazing how different sidewalls on same sizes but diff makes can differ in shape and thickness etc
Wishes for more power...
