So you are essentially running with an effective offset of +12 in the rear. With an average drop of say 1.5", no amount of achievable rolling is going to eliminate rubbing.

Hmmmm. Then are there any stiffer springs that won't lower the car? I like the stance of it now, I don't necessarily want to lower it, I just want to alleviate some of the rub and keep the look of it now. I'm planning on a rear sway bar too.

Duh, now that I think of it, I might have to get coilovers for this because you can use coilovers to maintain factory ride height, yea?
