so i lowered my vl on kings lows, and put peddars shocks in (not sure exactly what ones) and got an adjustable panhard put in and got it set up. but i still get scrub when ive got a bit of weight in the back. im only riding on 17s but ive been told theyr a tad bit wider then what i should have gotten. anyways, is guard rolling worth getting done? if so, how much am i looking at spending?

Ive got 245's on the rear with out panard bar, and its not too bad, as said above, roll the gaurd, and check the rear seatbelt bolt isnt hitting either.

where abouts is the seatbelt bolt? im prettyyyyy sure its on the lip of the guard, u can see marks there sometimes but never any really digging into the tire. i just cant stand the sound of it. ive rolled the guard in just a tad but i dont wanna over do it and warp the outside or anything. theyr 235's im pretty sure, a guy i know reckons i shud have gone 225s.

That means nothing without the specs of the rim you have Rim width = Rim offset = It's probably rubbing heigher up inside the guard, what front shocks do you have, what springs (are front and back the same)? and is it rubbing on one side or both???????????????
