    rear rubbing

    i just bought new koning 17's, it seems that when ever i go over a good size bump that something in the back is rubbing, i looked under there and there is a big bar about an inch above my tire. is that what is causing the noise if so does anyone else have this problem?

    it's not your wishbone....mine is really close to my tire and it never rubs. Only thing that could really be rubbing if the fender lip. What size rims and tires are they?

    ya, its most likely the fender. I have my right side rolled, and I never rub, but my left side has yet to be, and i get rubbing when i hit bumps, corner hard, etc..... btw, I have 17" with a 1.75" drop.
