I have OEM 166's installed with m6 offsets in the rear with stock sports suspension. I had the in laws in the back seat on Sunday and noticed on certain dips, the rears rubbed. Debating if I should roll the rear fenders. What would be the best solution to stop rubbing when you have people in the back seat?

Get your fenders rolled and lining shaved. Call Tony Saggu 818-368-4395. He has done several members on this forum. You will leave satisfied and be able to have a full car of people and not rub. Trust me it is worth the drive. He hooked me up big time.

I think you should roll your fenders. It will only get worse if you eventually get 20"s and the recommended tire size diameter is about 1" bigger (275/30/20) than 19" (275/30/19).
