1. Post pictures.
2. Give specs on springs/shocks/struts.
3. Describe the rubbing exactly. Where is it, the liner or the fender? use chalk or grease pencil to know this exactly.
4. See #1.

#1 = Pics below

#2 = STD R1 coilovers / 6kg front - 3-4kg (progressive rate) rear / not sure of valving, have the damping turned down pretty soft for ride. Coilovers are uber adjustable - all the front lowering is done by lowering the entire shock body in the perch (not by frigging with springs / therefore full suspension travel can be maintained) --- not sure of drop, but judging by the tuck in the front (even with tires that are .25 inch taller than stock) I'd say 3 inch front and 2+ inch rear)

#3 = turning right (car leaning to leftside) the drivers side fender liner is rubbing basically non stop

turning left (car leaning to the rightside, it only rubs the fender liner if there is also a bump in the corner / with or without passenger)

driving straight - both front fender liners rub on big impacts (sudden dip in road / crossing a hwy overpass (particularily where bridges meet the road) etc....

Driving straight - both rear fenders rub with really really big impacts or dips

#4 = see #1

tires and wheels again = 16x7 40mm offset - 195/50/16

I'm gonna work on getting better pics of the ride height and the fender liners where the rubbing is (presumably that mud will be rubbed off where it was rubbing)
