17” wheel hitting tire rod, help?

I’m trying to mount fifteen52 wheels and they are hitting the tire rod ends and ideas

 

Wheel spacers. Or, you need to see if there's a different tie rod end.

 

Did you ever get this resolved? What offset were the wheels you were trying? The Fifteen52 Analogs are 0 offset.

 

I used wheel spacers but not the wheels rub. I cut the wheel liners and did the body mount chop but it still rubs. Has anyone tied to cut the tie rods to give more caster?

 

So...what is rubbing exactly?

 

Tires rubbing on body mount

 

Even after the chop

 

What UCAs?

 

Icon

 

Bingo! That's your problem. They don't provide enough caster. MCM or TC will fix your caster.

 

What about cutting the tie rods?

 

Sounds...like a bad idea??

 

That's a suggestion I've personally gotten from Icon to fix camber. Makes no sense to me to cut the tie rods. IMO the arms should've been made correctly to begin with. But, to your point, the arms set the caster and I don't think cutting the tie rods will have any effect. I've been down this road and switching to MCM arms fixed my camber issues and gave me far better caster numbers. With MCM I got 0* camber both sides, 4* caster left and 4.5* caster right. The caster is offset, higher on the right, to accommodate the road crown.
