Integra is rubbing, help!
Alright the setup I have is
94 integra
eibach sportlines 1.7" F&R
kyb gr2's front
17inch wheels with 205/40-17 tires
problem is...If i go over a bridge that inclines right when you get on the bridge(sorta a bump) or if i hit a pothole, my wheels rub. Second problem if i go into a drive way slowly that is a steep incline the wheel that hits, makes a god awful tire scrapping noise, but it's not the normal hitting the fender noise.
The gr2's are fairly new maybe a month...the springs i've had for a year or so now, and i bought them used on ebay.
I've seen people who dropped the integra 2.0in in the front and didn't scrape. so i'm looking for an easy to fix to this. i thought about spring spacers, replacing the sportlines, getting a ground control kit. problem with the ground control is i've heard it rides like bricks, and i love teh ride of teh eibachs they aren't that bouncy at all, but i don't feel every damn thing i go over either. and the problem with fender rolling is, well i don't know how.
So anyways i just need some more insight as to what to do.

give your struts proper break in time...When I first got my coilovers, i couldnt drop it more than an inch without rubbing. First I had it dropped like 2 inches... 205-50-16 offset 40(c8's) I was like wtf??? Drove like that for many months, only dropped a inch...hated the wheel gap...Then one day I was like **** it, if it still rubs ill just live with it...gave myself the proper drop like 2.25 and havent rubbed since... I love it.
cliffs, struts need a few months to break in.
