I hope the 5mm frontspacer will solve the rubbing problem, I am not sure what the cause is, but my previous set didn't rub with the same height.
2011 Fsport 18" with 235/40/18 tires on 18x8" +45ET (spacers makes it ET35)

you hear rubbing when your turning? I used a heat gun and pushed back a small area of the inner liner the side that faces towards the car not the engine. If you have someone turn your wheel and you look at it youll see it. Other than that it can rub from your drop too...im luckily not having any issues.

No not when turning, because I already did that mod, its the bumper tab, but thats due to the spacer I have used of 10mm, which pushes the wheels 10mm further outside.
What tire size are you runnning?
Is your drop only the Fsport springs?
how much gap do you have?

225-40-19 up front and 255/35/19 in the rear which is what the ISF runs, im switching to 225/35/19 up front when they are used up i might go 235/40/19 and 255/40/19..yep only dropped on fsport springs its about one finger gap rear and two in the front. Its sitting even though didnt have to mess with AFS or anything.

Still waiting for my new spacer, so I just lowered the car and removed the 10mm spacer and there is no rubbing anymore...
I would rather lower it without spacers than raise the car with spacers :P
