Prelude SI wheels

[AAPOQ]

My question is if anyone ever had trouble with 92-93 si wheels, not sawblades the 7spoke. I just got some used and I noticed while turning hard in reverse the fronts scrape. Going forward is fine though. Any insite would be great. thanks in advance!

They fit. I have some on one of my cb's
It could be the wrong size tire

It could be the size. When u go in reverse the engine and front end goes forward because of the "momentum" I guess u could say and so if it's a bigger size that could be it.

SI wheels

The wheels are 15x6.5 which is an inch bigger than the stock wheels (15x5.5). I can't find where anyone has had this problem. I can turn the wheel all the way right or left and not scrape but reverse I have to be careful.

I have the 4g Lude 7 spokes on mine with 205/55-15s... The never rubbed once on me. Check around to see if any splash shields or anything Is hanging a little low or out of place.

I think they look aight, aside from mine being painted (poorly) by their old owner lol. Good luck man.

BTW its metal on metal scraping.

What size tires are you running?
Just a thought, Check your strut bar bushings. I have seen one that was missing on a cd5 and when you would back up the wheel would move back in the wheelwell and rub.

Ahh i see.. All I can say is see if you can locate where exactly its scraping and go from there. And also maybe your wheels are wider than mine I'm not exactly sure on the width. Sorry I can't be of more help...

to quote the comedian Henny Youngman

Tires aren't rubbing, I haven't lowered the car yet, and I just took 17x7 rims off that were fine today. With all my other wheels on this car I can turn lock to lock without grind/scrape. The problem is definetly Si rim scraping on something. But if nobody has heard of this issue I guess I'm on my own. I will post result when solved. Hopefully
P.S. Thank you everyone and tire size isn't the issue. Like I said its metal on metal, no tire rub.

If you want, you can just give them to me and not worry about the issues anymore

Are you sure you didn't bend the brake dust shield taking on and off the wheel? The dust shield is easily bent and can scrape on the rotor.

-2 cents.

hardware on the brakepads? dust shield, tires hitting inner fender.

It's the edge of the rim scraping your sway bar endlink I bet. I have Sawblades and they do the same thing! Thought it was just me but if you really search the site there are other cases of it happening w/ prelude wheels.
