Looks great! Can't wait for mine to show up. Exactly where on your car is the rubbing happening? Also what wheels/offset and tires are you running?

17 x 7 +42 It rubs when I am on the highway at high speeds when I hit a dip. Also when I go thru intersections sometimes.

are you gonna roll the fenders when the rub is located?
rubs are usually associated with too high/low offsets of rim/tire packages bought before lowering...,the drop looks sweet on your ride though.

Howz the comfort level, is it too harsh?

Do you still like the springs? Have you noticed any negative effects, handling/ tire wear, from the camber being off?

I've had them installed for less that 2 months and my front tires need to be replaced. Also I think the ride quality is a little bouncy on the highway.
