I know you don't want to hear this, but you probably want to raise the car back up about 1.5".
In addition to the clearance problem you've already noticed, you have introduced too much negative camber in the rear, and too much positive camber in the front, and you are also going to have a problem wherever you take the car to get it aligned.
What spring rates are you using?

What?
2.5" on an EP3 is a big drop. You could be hitting your bump stops and it could just feel like a big hit because your suspension now has no travel. Unless this thing is a full time race car and you have the camber all set I think you may want to raise it up a little.
