Unhappy Emergency/ Help ASAP

Hey everyone, I finally got struts for my 97 2.5 TL. I bought the Tokico Struts. I have the 1.7 drop on my car with Eibach Sportline springs with 18 inch rims. Before I replaced my strut's the drop was perfect. I had no tire rubbing whatsoever. Now that I changed them my car is lower than before and my tires rub. Do any of you know what I can do so that I can remedy my situation? Is it possible for me to raise my car a tiny bit without having to buy new springs. I did not know my car was going to get lowered more. If any of you know anything please let me know because my car is undrivable right know. If you guys would be so kind to give me your phone number so that I can contact you personally to discuss this matter with more detail.

you can try and roll your fenders, that might help a little.

I'd agree with unx on this one.
For the sake of knowing... what the width of the rims, offset and tire size and brand of tire?
