Rubbing - and not the good kind
Here's the setup:
04 SRT
S3 Mopar Coilovers (dropped to the lowest setting for fronts, about 1/4 inch or so up in the rear)
Kazera 18x7.5" rims
BFG 225/40ZR18 tires all around
"budget" sway bar mod (aka the PT Cruiser route)
rear tension bars
adjustments on coilovers to "medium" setting (aka, not too hard, not too soft)
Problem: My rear rubs when I throw the car into a corner... the lip on the rear fender well digs into my tire... leaves a nice mark... and if you transition qiuckly, it actually makes the car feel a little "loose"...
any ideas short of raising the heck out of the back of my car???
the two ideas I have -
"roll" the inner fender (which scares me!)
raise the car up some (which might be the solution I really need, but hate due to me liking the stance)
if you have any other ideas / suggestions - please let me know. thanks!

What about a different offset to move the wheel in some? Probly no room for that either.... But rolling the inner fender is a little risky body wise and wount gain that much I would think. I don't know how much you need but maybe a different offset will work?
different offset would require me buying new rims (which is not really an option).
it sounds like I am stuck raising the car up again (argh, not live threatening... just kind of wished I didn't have to).
anyone know anything about "bump stops" or such that might work..??? hmmmmm....
