    Lmao, you sure the rubbing isn't the sideskirt on the road?!
    
    Thought it'd been a bit obvious? Either that and you've got the wrong offset rear wheelsvplus some negative camber and it rubs on the inside of the wheel arch.

    Definatly need to lower it after.... get stiffer dampers for rear to help it stop catching when people are in the back.
