Rubbing on chassis means steering stops need adjusted.

Or get rims with more offset=no rubbing and your steering lock isn't reduced.

But not to big otherwise you'll run the tyre into the back of the front guard but you will have to do a body lift/ space out your bumpstops/ cut your guards to stop the wheel to guard rubbing.

I had escudo 1600 and run 30x9.5x15 on a -24 rim and loved it as the tyres stuck out the guards a about an inch and stopped alot of potential panel damage :lol:

the steel diff came out of some certain grand vitaras. "strx7" (or whatever his name is on here i cant remember) is the man in the know as to what came with steel diffs. I do know that they are like rocking horse shit
