as some of you know I bought brandons 18x7.5 motegi wheels. I am only getting rubbing in the rear (when there are people in the back seats). I am not going to lower my car. Seems that the tires (rear) are rubbing on the control arm. Will a camber kit help me in this case? It only rubs when cornering and when I hit bumps in the road, with people in the back of course. Thanks in advance for any help.

It may help... when you look at the wheels from behind and under the car, do you see them like this:

or like this (assuming they're hitting the control arm):

That's how you'd be able to tell if the camber is off. When I had them on with the pro-kit drop I only rubbed with people in the back, but the camber wasn't too bad in the back, only the front.

just replace your worn out factory shocks and you'll be fine

I thought to try that. So I will, for a stock feel, go with kyb right? What are some good brand? Feel and moneywise?

You really can't beat KYB GR2 for both.
