Car is to low. Needs to be higher or you can cut out the section that it is hitting. I have seen that done, but only on race cars!

i realize this. but the question is this.
is replacing the springs the only way to fix this? i already have it all the way up. or is it the omni upper control arms?

Then you probably need longer springs. Thats kind of crappy that with the collars as high as they go and its still too low..... do you have a pic of the car? Just curious what your ride height looks like.

i was thinking the same thing, my car isn't super low any more, but i don't run into issue bottoming out with skunk2 upper arms.

I would say it's a combonation of too soft of spring, too low and the Omni UCA's.
Solution= raise the car up. If you have to sitch the H&R kit, then do it.
