Currently, I'm rubbing (Minimal) because...I'm on Springs..However, I'm certain that...once I change over to Coilovers that will solve this problem, because I'll have the flexibility of tailoring the suspension to my preference, plus the stiffness of those springs as well.

I'll provide feedback...

The Coilovers are going on in conjunction with the Brake project coming this Fall...Just in time for the Volk 10" by 12" set-up...The JDM window visors are on hold until other Carbon Fiber Project comes down the pipeline...Then, she'll be worthy to Rep your Shop Logo sticker and be on your website...HAHA...
