Hey guys I have 18x9 wheels and when I turn the wheel all the way they hit the swaybar :dontknow:. I've heard that there is a spacer you put in the inner tie-rod. I'm coming up with a loss though. Have any of you ever had this problem?

You can put a small wheel spacer on the front to help out with clearance. You can pick them up at your local parts store for around $20. I fairly certain Mr.Gasket carries any size you need just make sure you go with one that wont effect your lug bite. 1/8th-1/4th should probably do the trick. My dad runs them on the front of his cobra with no problems at all.

SOUNDS LIKE YOU HAVE THE WRONG WHEEL OFFSET. I HAVE 18X9 ON THE FRONT OF MINE WITH NO PROBLEMS.
