I would reroute the harness regardless, if you plan on lowering the car. Idk how bouncy or low Eibachs on Scs drop. But I would install em, drive around the block, raise the car up and see if the fender liner was touched and if yes then relocate it. If theyre not too bouncy and you still have some wheel gap just leave it alone.

No need to do that with Eibachs. They do not drop the SC low enough. I am running Espelir with 18's and my fender liner is untouched and harness is safe.

I went to put in the eibachs and they had an inch of play in the strut, now I realize that under the load if the car they won't but I don't think I will run them as I'm not sure I'm a big fan of that design..
