I cut my holes last night and have no clearance problem. I even left the top layer of metal in tact. The only way i could see someone having an issue is if they cut the hole in the wrong place, used too small of a hole saw bit, or are running a 17 or smaller wheel forcing the ball joint to have to travel higher then most since the majority of people are running 18's

I'm running stock 18's off the 3gs with megan coils with a pretty big drop... And the holes made a huge difference, but don't get me wrong if I hit something crazy in the road it will still hit but 9 out of 10 times I'm good to go....
I feel like when the control arm hits it puts a lot of stress on the rim when hitting bumps because the suspension doesn't get full travel... Causing rims to get out of round or bend...
you are right...especially when the roads are really bad...but then I thought of it this way...bend my wheels...or destroy my subframe and possibly poke a hole in my oil pan...or...slam the transmission on the ground...that would be a bigger repair lol..

i had it fix yesterday. I went to o-nex in city of industry they checked it out for me and when they saw what was wrong they hammered it really hard and thank god it's a lot better. it still hit but only when it's really deep but so far i didn't have a problem.
Either you cut holes in the wrong place, cut holes that are too small, or it's not your control arms that are banging.
nope and nope.
I know what I am doing to my car. You can clearly see the balljoint of the UCA with .5" extra space. The issue is that it doesn't help much on stupid slammed cars. AEighty6 (Martin) can co-sign this... LOL!!!!!
Battery is a die hard platinum... Had a red top but everytime I let the car sit for too long it would need to be jumped... I could let this one sit for 3 weeks and it starts right up...
