Hey guys, I just got some 205/45/16 for my car and they rub under hard
cornering! Since I don't want to go to 40s, what can I do?
My car is lowered on (what I think is) a Sachs Sport kit which feels a
touch soft. Perhaps I should get something harder?
Please help!

Uh... oh... you got me there.

Got the rims second-hand, they are 7.5x16s I think...
I don't really know about the offset. How do I measure it?

My fronts are fine (I can turn the steering wheel fully either way).
It's just when cornering hard that the front outer tire will rub and I think
the rears rub when going over indentations on the road at high speed.
So far I've only driven with myself in the car so it might get worse with
a couple of people inside...
Help? Anyone?

Time to trim the fenders or roll them. I started with rolling but a week later decided to cut it.
