[QUOTE="peckchoonheng, post: 237886, member: 812"] Not exactly. I have found out from the previous owner of the rims that he gets the rubbing at the rear too. He is using M-Tech Sports Lowering kit. He asked me to go to the panel beater to turn in the fender a little (less than half inch) and it should clear. I think it has got to do with the offset of the rims. If the offset has 5mm more, my wheel should clear perfectly without having to do anything. I did a check online, it seems like most people having 19" on their E39 have their fender rolled. Another check I did with the famous workshop in Penang was that they recommend adding spacers to the rear. Not opting for this as it will compromise the comfort big time. Got my fender knocked a little this morning and everything is fine now. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
