Limitless Grp tires hitting spindle

[Jester194]

I put a set of grps tires on limitless and the rim contacts the spindle where bearing sits slightly and makes front wheels drag, I put hoons back on and they spin free, anyone run into this before

Yep. Try a hex extender. I use HR 5mm.
By spindle, you mean the steering knuckle, right? The difference between Hoons and GRPs is the hub offset.

I have em on my typhons and OFNA cars. But didnt really like em cause the pin holes are not really accurate, will cause slight binding of the wheel bearings. And the holes get larger over time, causing loads of freeplay.
Anyway thanks for the suggestion.

I never had a problem on my Infraction v2 with them, both the old style and new GRPs. But now that I think back on it...I'm not 100% certain if I ran GRPs with the original steering knuckles or if I only began running them after I swapped in some aluminum knuckles from GPM, the latter of which is certainly possible.
