Airlift struts hit PP wheels

Just got my air ride installed on my 17 Gt PP and the front bags are hitting the tires on front bad. Anyone have this issue? Camber is at 0 then went + and still hits. Anyone running the PP wheels without wheels spacers? Thanks in advance!!!

I never tried PP wheels but I believe other guys are running them. Going to be hard to tell anything without pics, but sounds like something is installed wrong.

Same problem. In my case it was just the factory fitted wheel weights clipped onto the rim.
Awesome excuse to go 20"'wheels

Spacers may help. My M350 19x10 was contacting the adjustment collar on the front struts, so I used a 6.5mm spacer and then used a dremel to just take the top end down a bit on the collar tooth most outboard so I didn't have any issues during hard cornering.

I can tell you on a 10" wide wheel, you'll need at most a +35 offset, +30 clears pretty well.

I was running a 5mm spacer with the PP wheels.

Is this 5mm spacer needed for all pp wheeled cars? I just finished the rear and have no clearance issues and starting on the front tonight.

As far as I know the PP wheels need 5mm spacers in the front to clear.

Where did you get the spacers and did it requires longer studs?

5mm would not require new studs.

I run 6mm custom made ones with plenty of thread engagement.

I think I can do it with out spacers. I installed the BMR fc003 alignment bolts and have about a quarter inch clearance. I believe I can take up the positive camber with the camber adjustment on the airlift strut top mount.

I got my spacers from Amazon. It was something like $27 and I was surprised to find there were 4 spacers in the box.

And you do not need longer studs. There is plenty of threads with the factory studs for 5mm.
