Rear End Lift Suggestions

[Ransom8707]

well i wanted to know if I could get a hand here. which way would be the best way to lift the rear end of my lara? any suggestions since I really dont have any knowledge in car suspensions

[Patrik]

if you mean with a car jack well theres a good way to completly lift the rear end with one jack.. right between the rear wheels under the trun there a metal plate.. you jack it up there and you will see the car lift.. voila

Well thanks for the info but i had to make myself more clearer lol my fault sorry about that.
What I meant to say was how can I stop the rear end of my Lara from hitting the wheels? I was suggested liftin it with air shocks but I wanted to know from Solara owners what would be the best way. Since I have no car suspension knowledge so far Any Help please

Here are the wheels I installed from a prev forum

Raising your car is not the way to go.

You need to get in there and roll the fender, i.e. roll the inner lip of the fender to keep it from hitting the tire.

most likely whats happening is your suspension is shot !

get new struts and lowering spring (i know your looking to rise the car but the best choice is to lower it since with good brand springs, eibach/tein, the compression kilograms are higher than stock wich means your car wont travel as much) so that said just buy new stuff and you wont have that problem anymore and your ride quality will be greatly improved

Whoa I got scared for a minute after reading the third post. I thought you were about to say you were going to donk out the solara.

Oh no theirs now way im goin to do that. The Solara was my first car actually its kinda hard to get rid of it.

Well the reason the rear tires are hittin is because the rear spring location (the rounded area on top of the tire inside) is just like an inch from hittin the tire and with every little bump you can hear the tires hit and sorta scratch which is really annoying

If that was the case, I'd organize a mob with torches and pitchforks to descend upon his house.

I'm pretty sure it's not the spring seat that's hitting the tire, it's the fender.

[Ransom8707]

Actually after taking a closer look at it yeah it is the fender thats hitting. I had alot of black grease tainted on the bottom of the fender where the tires hit and scratches. So I would guess the rolling the fender would be the only and best solution to fix this problems if im not wrong. Right?

[ThatVietGuy]

Correct
