NEED ADVICE : Tires Rubbing!
I recently had Koni Yellows installed to replace my stock shocks which I had been using with Eibach Sportlines for about a year. I the Koni's but the only problem is my front tires now rub when I corner. I don't even have to corner very hard and they always rub. Does anyone with my type of set up have this problem? Do I need to get the Koni's reseated on a higher perch? I noticed it's lower now even more so than when I had the stock shocks and the Sportlines settle. What do I need to do to fix this problem? I want to be able to corner and not worry about my tires rubbing, unless I'm really cornering hard. I even had to remove my front mud guards cause they would scrape practically all the time when I corner. Oh, I also had an Eibach camber kit installed in the front. Could they be why my tires rub when I corner? What should I do? Please help!
What she looks like now with the Koni's:

i have tokico blues and sportlines and I rub pretty good on the left front, but my tires are bigger then rOdxx's. I rub w/ my stock setup too though. You may want to get a smaller tire on your next purchase, or you can trim away slightly at the fender trim.
