Just put some 17's on my T5, and when I turn on nearly full lock I get a real bad rubbing. (Am lowered 40mm.)

Would spacers help?

Anyone..?

I have the same problem, there is something you can fit to limit the lock but I dont know what the part number is or how much it is.

Maybe I could just turn less and save some ££££'s...

What lowering kit are you using? Can't see why you couldn't use spacers... but your turning circle on full lock would be made wider. Which kinda doesn't help your original problem if you're needing full lock.

When a put on ma replica 18" Pegs running 225/40 tyres the rubbing was so bad that is stopped the car, A use 5mm spacers and it helped a bit, A have just replaced the 2 front tyres for 215/40's and the rubbings gone.......
