M2c rubbing with sport cup 2 on 255/35/19 front

Hey guys I am currently am having a very mild rub to the inner fender liner in the front of my m2c with 1 full turn of the wheel. I am running m performance suspension at 602 front and back. I am running 255/35/19 sport cup 2 tires on 19/9.5 et 30 Brixton wheels with a 5mm spacer. Would the rubbing stop if I were to switch to 255/30/19 tire size in the front or would a less aggressive tire in 255/35/19 work? Any other solutions or help would be appreciated! Thanks

Phil

With the m performance suspension my inner wheel hits the adjustable suspension. Spacers are needed here. No rubbing at the outer fender at all just the front of the wheel arch liner when turning a full turn. I would have preferred to not run them at all honestly. Thoughts on the tire sizes?

I think most people are living with liner rub.
The stock wheels/tires/susp have about 1/2" at full lock.

sadly, your rubbing is due to the spacer. i had the same size spacer (5mm) and front tire (RE-71R) with M Performance coilovers. i removed the spacers and fixed the issue. luckily, my wheel/tire (Apex/RE-71R) combo clears the coilovers. no more rubbing...

Did you have any rubbing on on the actual coilover? Dealer and apex themselves told me I needed a spacer or tire wouldn’t clear the suspension. Are you running stock wheels? Mine are Brixton 19/9.5

I have slight rubbing on the front liner as well on some off-camber turns. Stock height, 5mm spacer, 763M and 255/35 PS4S. The design of the front liner seems to protrude out more than the OG M2.

It'll eventually wear down.
