problem tho..
the passenger front is rubbing when i turn right only.. and cant figure out why,, its sitting just a tiny bit lower than the driver side and any time im making a right it rubs..
anyone got any input on what to look at?

ok first of all: no pics - it didn't happen :thumbsdown:
And yes, roll the fender - easiest of all fixes... well, if its rubbing on the outside, that is. If on the inside - spacers.

We rolled the fenders, front and back,, but its ONLY happening on the one side... if it was tire size wouldnt it happen on BOTH sides?
how about i put stock sport springs back on in the front, and leave the H and Rs on the rear? car would sit level...right?
or is that just totally not do-able?

Only when you turn right? Check if it is rubbing on the inside part of the fender(the plastic shield) you can check this out by looking into the fender and check where the contact area is.

It is rubbing on the outside of the fender. and it got rolled also..
not rubbing on the plastic..
i also thought it could be the shock,,BUT the shock does not change the rate of where the car height sits, thats all on the spring...ok ok my wheel guy told me that...
car got a ful laser allignment also so its not that.. im baffled.
i might just put the stock springs back on the front and it will raise it just above the tire and the car will sit level.. its all i can think of...
but god knows how the ride will be with stifer in the back and stock front... luckily it sport so it may be ok..
