You could put a narrower tyre on… That would pull the side walls in and away from the spring seat.

I had the same issuea when I put a set of standard ET38's on mine.
My current Alley Cats are ET30 I think, so that gave me 8mm, which was enough.

In your pic, your tyre isn't actually touching, so the 10 mm spacer should have sorted it, unless you had not set camber yet?

My bad. I thought they had been fitted and possibly the suspension not put back in the same place!

Ah - I see…

7x15's on an ET 35 is going to be a fair bit tighter than mine were, and I had about 0.5 mm, so I guess you have total contact  :dontknow:

I think you are going to have to change the wheels buddy.  :?

There are probably a few different possibilities, depending on what car they were originally intended for  :dontknow:
