That sucks man . . . is your rear right wheel off centered somehow, or are the bodykits not going on evenly on both sides or something?

I got a supra too. i dont have any problems with the bumpers cutting the tire. dude, WHAT THE FUK is wrong with your body kits.
I am scared literally. i have gone thru 6 supras and none of them had a body kit problem. i say get ne kits or completely shave away the part that is rubbing against the tire.

SHEESH!

Civic Freak your not alone I have the white supra with the body kit and it rubs on mine too... I took a dremel and smoothed some off both sides just to find out that the axles were out of line so I fixed them and IT RUBBED WORST so I got my dremel out again and fixed it by taking off little by little while the body was still on the chassie so I knew where the tire would be making sure it didn't look cheesy...It works good now...

Must be a problem with the white Supra, cause I've got a red one and it all hooks up fine, no rubbin or anything. Mind you maybe it's not just the paint that's different, gently dremel and touch paint after. Hopefully it solve all.

KevMeister... He just got help... The Dremel way or the hobby knife way is the best way to do it... If he wants it to stop rubbing...
