Hahahah this.

But seriously I have euro flat fives and they are 18x8.5 et 45 with 225/40 tires and I have zero rubbing issues with rolled fenders. So roll you fenders and call it quits

Is your rear subframe aligned? On my R, the passenger side sits slightly further out than my driver side. I was getting a slight rub until I re adjusted my preload. It's probably hitting the edge where the bumper and the Fender meet. There is a little piece of plastic/metal that sticks out and it gets hit.

Haha yea getting that done soon.

That's funny because I have the same problem. It only rubs on my passenger side not my driver side. Should I ask the alignment place to check my rear alignment and adjust the preload?

Used shocks that were not designed for a shorter than stock spring is your problem!!

Wheel width is definitely not your problem with such a high offset.

Get some aftermarket shocks and your car will handle much better without issues. Bilstein sports!
