I state in my for sale thread that stock wheels will rub covered mounts. Depending on how bad it is shaving the inside sidewall of the tire may help. Where's your castor? Last edited by ROWDY RACING; 03-09-2012 at 07:18 PM. |

whoops sorry. just saw you replied to this. i think it was like 120 or 160. nothin to crazy. but at first i used a 80 grit flapper wheel to take the big chunks off. then hit it with the da. it worked so good. looks factory, nice and smooth!
