Low EK's w/camber kits hitting shock towers??
Hey guys, i'm dropped about 2-2.25" on H&R sports with a b18b up front in my EK. I have 16" wheels and Ingalls front camber kits (whole upper control arm). Everytime I hit a good sized bump the upper control arms hit the inside of the shock towers and it feels horrible. How do you guys get around this? I've seen a lot lower EK's and apparently some people don't have this problem?
I guess the camber in the front is only off by -0.5 degrees when I had the OEM upper control arms in.. I want to go lower but I don't want this problem to get worse. Any help??

The upper control arms are actually hitting the metal.. you can see the dents in the towers when you pop the hood.

increase your spring rate and adjust your shocks to a higher setting (if you have adjustables) you cant increase travel if the room just isnt there. so the only thing left to do is to decrease travel by tightening everything up.
