Lowered my car back down. This is a pic of it too low. I had to raise the front up some cause every little bump in the road made the wheels rub. And I also barely made it down my driveway.lol photos from iPod touch 4g. Not tue beat quality.

Well it turns out that I wasn't rubbing the back tab at all, it was the rear knuckle. It ate my tires up pretty bad.lol so when I got new tires I went for some 205s instead of the meaty 225s and that did the trick. You may want to make sure that your hitting the tab and not the knuckle.

You can fit 245 wide tire in there. Its either your wheel offset is very high or some else is wrong. I had +46 offset with 225/40/18 tires with no rubbing and the car was slammed at the time.

When I put the evo wheels with 225/50/17 tires it started rubbing on the rear tab and some of the bumper and that was why I raised the car.

You're having some bad camber issues in the rear to have bald inner edge tires

It wasnt camber that was causing this

Its the old worn out bushings. They are allowing the wheel to hit it. I dont have the time to do the polyurethane bushings but the wheel offset is +40 and they are 7in wide they had 225 tires so they needed 205s anyway and that solved the problem until I can do the bushings. Btw I do have a camber kit installed now.
