well me front is all out of whack..

got a flat on the way home from work.. didnt even have a spare and it was 2:30am in the middle of the country lmao gay as

anyway the tyre that went pop was rubbing on something on the insde of the wheel to the point it was to the canvas.

my springs have been cut from standard to become lowered (imn guessing this is what stufferd it?)

but im looking at gettign proper lowered springs and while im at it get new suspension.

just wondering what gear does everyone have out there on their EF/EL??

im running King Lows at the rear, XR springs at the front. makes the a** end sit a bit lower than the front, which is a bit of a personal preference for me lol.

Superlow King Springs.
Your problem sounds as though there is something wrong with your suspension or offset of your rims - theyre should definitely be no rubbing going on.
