if you guys dont want your axles to pop out when removing the struts, why dont you just take the axle nut off? take about 2 seconds and can save a world of trouble. anyway, your car looks good, like the drop

Oh, you will get some rubbing... specifically, the front wheel liners at the top right next to the fender.

If I hit a big bump while turning, it rubs. For now, the push pins are taking most of the damage, about 1 mm of the top of the pins looks like the tire has been trying to shave it off. And this is considering I have a higher offset than you.

By contrast, if I hit a bump while going straight... there's no rubbing. So, I guess it's because of the tire being turned (sticking out more).

How far do those lower your car? I'm betting further than mine.
