Recently had the following installs:

-Riaction GT-1, Linear coilovers, about 1 3/4 inch drop all around.
-Front and rear SPL camber arms
-20mm Garageline spacers all around
-wheel alignment cause the shit pulled to the side hard when I got up to 50mph.

I love the look. Not so low that wheels are tucked, will keep spacers on until I get my wheels.

Looks basically perfect.

These cars are so dive-prone that I’d be worried I change a bunch of stuff and either the tires are rubbing on major front dips, or the front rubs. Seems like you’d have to be really stiff to know it isn’t going to happen.

Is it a given the front will rub if you hit something like a dip when off the track?

It will rub if I took it to the track and hit any type of dip, it rubs a little when I drove it around the town yesterday. It has a 34 adjustable dampening setting on the coilovers. So I need to pop the hood and adjust the dial to make the front stiffer to see if it keeps the front from rubbing on bumps

I don't have any problem with tire rubbing. None whatsoever...

Interesting, I found that the wheel well lining near the outer edge sticks out more towards the wheel than the other areas. When I hit bumps it would just hit that portion, so I am working on shaving some of that down.

Color combo looks amazing. Was really wanting to get a red one but didn't see one in person, and it was around $6k more so I went with gray. If I saw a red one in person based on your pictures I would've def coughed up the cash. But sheeeesh. That RED THOUGH. Black roof too?? Sheeeeeeeeeesh

It because you're now lowered. What you're rubbing against is your fenders liner. No matter how much negative camber you add, it'll do this. Might need to raise it a bit, or add stiffness to the damper

I'm having the same issue, so when I get my new wheels, I'll be adding a little bit of height

I bet is happening in the front? I didn't change anything from the suspension. Only the spacers. My driveway is a bit on higher ground so when I go in and out and turn, the front tires are turned and out. No rubbing at all.

Yeah, only the front outer corner near the top the liner has a bump in it pushing out and will rub a bit hitting little bumps on the road. I took a dremel and shaved down the wheel well liner a bit. Seems like it worked pretty good
