Hello
I have from springs problem !
I put on back tyres size 275 35 19 (rims from M6)
They during drive of tyre wipe about body.
I have sport suspension (spring with pink point)

Sorry, but I am not sure I understand you. I think you got your words mixed up..."wipe him about body?" I am not sure what you mean.

if so, roll your fenders. that should fix the problem. but i wouldnt think that with the 167s on sport suspension should rub in the first place

Here is my take from what I could gleen. I think the OP used BabelFish or some other translation website to translate from his native language to English. Anyhow, he has 1) 167 wheels with 17mm offsets, 2) 275/35/19 tires and 3) Sport suspension. I'm betting he also has 255/40/19 tires for the front.

To fix this problem, change the tires to 245/35/19 and 275/30/19. Guarantee that the problem will be resolved.

my bad i didnt catch that for the rear tire size that he posted. so yeah, +1 on what vt stated and recommended. 275/30/19 is the size recommended for the rear wheels.
