Exhaust rubbing.

Dansby · January 10th, 2009, 11:38 AM

Since I put the 315s on the back, even after correcting the tips and getting everything straightened out, I can still occassionally hear my exhaust rubbing against the back driver side tire.

I was talking to a guy at the exhaust shop and I was telling him that my suspension was on the way and he said he wasn't even sure lowering it would be possible because of the way it would rub.

Anyone else have problems with this with wide tires?

are you sure the rest of your exhaust is in the right position? Reason why I was having a hell of a time with a lot of my exhaust was because my h-pipe was too low, causing the exhaust to dip and also push forward.

That could possibly be it. My exhaust seems to hang low...

How can that be fixed?

I took it to a shop, and they re-aligned everything.

get the pipes bent 45 in the 45 out around the tire and you shouldnt have anymore problems if realigning it doesnt fix the problem
