Astar tyres scraping body

No, Lifters would not cause any permanent change & also, get them only at the rear - that should solve your problem.

"ALL I WANT IS EVERYTHING"

Quality of spacers are of prime importance, as a failure at speed would lead to a catastrophic accident.

Personally would not go with them, would look at uprated springs.

Mr Binoy , changing the springs for me would be a little complicated since i dont have much knowledge regarding that , and also dont know for sure if the guy who changes it would be technically sound enough to put the right ones .

  If i do go in for lifters , which brand should i opt for ?

  help.....

@Kunal - why do you want lifters? If it is a problem of the wheels touching the arches then it is spacers that you need, unless you have also oversized the wheels' diameters.

S = k.I^2, where S is the amount of stupidity a species possesses, I is the intelligence the species has and k is the universal constant of stupidity.

Rohit, the cushining between the suspension and the car , which is used to push the car "up". Is that what you call spacers ? like the ones being installed on the sx4 in this topic (images). I thought those were being reffered to as lifters . Correct me if i am wrong. And yes , the problem is the wheel touching the arches.

     Rim size is the same as earlier (13 inch) tyres changed from 155/80 to 175/70 .

Those would be "lifters".You need spacers for this, not lifters.If the final wheel diameter or circumference is unchanged (i.e., increased) then you do not need to lift the vehicle at all, unless its for some special purpose like off-roading where you want to ensure that the underbody is high enough to minimise scraping with large stones, etc.

Rohit, he faces problems only when there is a high load in the back of the car. So suspension height increase will also work, without overanalysis.

His upgrade tyres are of the same final dia, but the offset of the upgrade rims could be different, or simply the wider tyre could be fouling with the arches of the wheel well earlier than the stock tyre would, under load.

The problem is solvable easier with suspension. I don't know if the type of spacers I posted are available or not, and that is a potential issue.

Well - lifter will work but the vehicle's handling will change (it will be prone to greater roll while cornering at speed - whether this is acceptable or not is Kunal's call)). If the wheels are wide and rub against the arches then they probably are also with incorrect offset. This too will affect the vehicle's steering geometry - to what extent, I'm not sure of - but an appropriate spacer will solve this as well.

S = k.I^2, where S is the amount of stupidity a species possesses, I is the intelligence the species has and k is the universal constant of stupidity.

In the image , the think the red area (the thickness above the tyre) is what touches the tyre .

With 4/5 people sitting in the car , there is a possibility of the front tyres touching the "red" areas also , right ?
