The best thing would be some steering rack limiters. My 17x9 in wheels rub a little at full tilt.

If it still happens get some '03-04 Cobra A-arms. They arent as wide, so they give more clearance.

The wheels are a different offset than ours. The best advice is to put ones with the correct offset on there.
A solution would be to put wheels spacers on the hubs, to "make" them the correct offset. You'll need to spend some $$$ and get good ones. Billet aluminum or steel. The ones that bolt onto the hub and the wheel gets bolted to it. Not the CHEAP Mr Gasket ones.
I think you'll need 1/2" or 3/4" ones. Put them on all four corners, too.

Good luck!

Spacers, or sell them for the correct wheels are pretty much the only options to make them fit correctly.

yeah, i've yet to see 05+ wheels on an sn95, but the offset is way different...look around on ebay for "hubcentric" spacers and purchase those...

A friend of mine did the same thing to his vert, his even rubbed on the rear too, and they look hideous! The rear wheels are about a foot inward of the lip.. Luckily, I'll be buying this car soon, WITHOUT the wheels at a discounted price! Darn, I won't get the nice 07 hammer looking wheels, too bad...

they say this is the kit to make the 05-07 wheels adaptable to our cars

Funny. The cheapest "take-off" set with tires is $800. The spacers are another $200. By the time all is said and done, I'll have about that much in my 17x9.10.5 Black Bullitts and 315/35 and 255/40 tires.
