Remember I tried to warn ya about the 235 width tires for your ride height? Perhaps Discount Tires will let you switch to 225? They did for me...

how much were you dropped? I'm a little surprised at rubbing w/ a good offset, unless you were just rediculously low

What is "extremely low"? Measurements?

Where is the rubbing? Front or rear? From looking at the pic, you have a rear camber kit, don't you? Ingall or something like the Comptech (SPC) one?

If the rubbing you're talking about in from the front, you can remove the clips for the inner fender liner. Then put the fender liner behind the metal tabs. This will eliminate some rubbing, however it doesn't prevent the tire from rubbing the fender when the front wheels are turned and the suspension being fully compressed.

Oh I was over 2.5 drop maybe 3. And its not the liner thats rubbing I took that completely out already. It is the lip on the fender itself. I am going to gring the lip and put touch up paint on it so it wont rust. Hopefully get to it tonight.

It was about 2.5 to 3 inch. Maybe even more. I raised it up 4 turns in the front and 3 in the back and it still is lower than all the eibach pro kits i have seen. It rubs on the outer lip of the fender. I am getting them rolled soon.

I will tint the ride eventually. Just isnt a big priority for me. I have 3 cars and I am modding 2 of them so yea tint isn't very high on my list.
