caliper clearance...

- Wed Jun 30, 2010 5:19 pm #202640 went to put a set of HX's on my friends '02 coupe and they're hitting the calipers. I'm pretty sure i can just grind some off the caliper.

question is, if i can get it to roll straight back and forth its good right?? don't wanna go out on the test drive and on the first turn have that shit bind up...

Doesn't 2002 come with a 15" wheel? stepping down to a 14" would mean you'd have a larger sidewall.

185/65/15 is stock size. So you'd need a 70 or 75 series sidewall on a 14" rim on that car.
