Cheers, im going to try and shave off the lump on the inner guard and see how i go. But till then im just going to drive my other car. The ride is still pretty good actually, its only on dips when it scuffs and it sounds bad. But speed bumps are fine, and is normal road driving. But i planned for that when I put a softer low profile tire on, so it would smoothe out the ride. Hopefully shaving off the lump helps. Thanks Bondie. A softer lower profile tyre? And I'm not real sure that the tyre will wear b4 the inner guard does ... anyway IMO I think it's got a lot to do with the softer spring the ATX has in it. Mine, a ZR6 on the same section width and profile but 19", does not rub at all. I have had ppl in the back and driven as normal with none of the rubbing happening. If your wallet alows I'd be considering changing the shock/struts which will also firm it up a bit which you may not like ... just my two bobs worths :) I'm sure it looks the part .. and looking forward to seeing some pics
