Scrubbing Right tire

[kynan]

Ok guys, 2 head scratchers here!

1) Had dropped spindles, Disks and BRMs with 175/65R15s put on my car so understandably widened a little. The thing is, now when i have a passenger the wheel scrubs on the wing. Any ideas how to solve this? I'm looking at the "narrowed and adjustable beam" option, the "smart car tires" option (been told this may not solve it and waste another tire) and the "wing bending out/up" and just wondered if anyone had any other ideas?

2) BRAKE LIGHTS KEEP GOING!!!!! Had about 5 switches since i got it dropped and the lights keep just going. Got disks on the front and brand new drums on the back.

Any ideas are happily accepted, just please help me!

Maybe your wings are not a matching pair

Get a matching pair to fix the problem

Measure the height from the ground to the arch with no one in it, the suspension could be sagging on one side, generally the drivers side due to it having extra weight on it for 30 plus gears

Cure this with new springs


Brakes are going, going where? Are you blowing bulbs or is the brake switch actulally faulty are you losing voltage on the circuit or is the fuse blowing- cant really help you out on this one unless you are more spacific to what is hapenning

Well its had a front end smash we think as u can see a clear weld all along inside the bonnet. Not sure if the wings match, will measure over the weekend.

Had a complete redo when the spindles, new trailing arms and ball joints, new bugpack shocks and stuff so shudnt be the shocks.

Im not blowing bulbs thankfully but that wud be simpler i guess. Its the switch, or the 5 ive had in it. The brake pedal gets really hard and my brake lights stop working unless u manage to get the pedal to the floor which i dont plan on doing as i will probably end up out the windscreen!

Thanks for your reply Pauly, hope this extra info helps.

Wings are the same height off the floor so guessing the suspension is fine. My the right side i meant as your looking at it so therefore it would be the passenger wing thats scrubbing.
