Rear Wheels not centered in wheel arch after lowering on B6

[VRvento]

Does this drive any other people nuts like it does me?

On my B6 A4 after ST Coilovers and 19x8.5 ET41 245/35/19 it rubs at about 1:30 oclock on the drivers fenders (and 10:30 on the passenger)

stupid IRS or else I could use a product like this to fix the problem:

heres some pics, the car isn't even slammed, but its clear the wheel likes to sit towards the rear of the wheel arch

Did you have an alignment done after the install? They need to adjust the rear control arms / tie rods. Can't remember which it is but they have to adjust it so that you don't have too much toe.

Yeah I got a 4 wheel alignment done 2 weeks ago. It still looks like it is kinda toe'd in though.

^Make sure they are adjusting your toe in the rear. The first place I took my car to for an alignment only adjusted the camber in the rear and not the toe. They need to adjust the rear sub-frame to get toe into spec.

This is normal. The wheels move back as the suspension compresses. There isn't really a fix for this as the castor isn't adjustable. Just make sure your rear subframe is centered so it's even on both sides.

Are you telling me we have the mk4 curse... backwards. I have never seen this.

That would annoy me like crazy.

its lowered. its never going to be perfect since they go off factory specs. unless you have a tech who knows what they are doing and can compensate...but ide assume that would cost more money than a regular alignment.

those great plates are pretty cool though!

Yeah but which is worse?
