Hippy New Year to everyone!

Question.
Do all williams on standard setup scrub the front wheel arches when cornering very hard?

I have replaced struts wishbones bump stops top mounts arb bushes and springs (white paint) with original parts.Got the tracking done and its purrfect and even measured the heights around the suspension and everything is equal.Yet still when cornering hard the front wheels manage to scrub the trim on the inside of the wheel arch :?

All new parts.

Well I found out what was.Those damn bumpstops from Renault!The new ones they sell are modified slightly and look very soft compared to the original ones.
As soon as I re-fit the original bumpstops (they were in good condition anyhow) the rubbing on the arches stopped.Sweet :wink:
