Have you tried parking your car with only one front wheel on an incline like when your pulling into a driveway? When I first put those wheels on my car I didn't think it rubbed either, but once I got home, I did that and it rubbed. I ended up haveing to shave about 1/2 of the lip from the center of the well back and now no issues.

Looks great though!

your gs is very tastefully done. I really like it man and i'm not a fan of 5 stars on the gs's but yours is tough... when u lowered the car did your AFL light come on with the tein s. tech?
