Control arms rubbing: 92 Civic hatch...
I installed them in reverse order of the OEM pieces and even torqued them to spec. Even after my alignment, they like to rub against the strut tower through turns and bumps.
Anyone else have this problem?

I'm only dropped 1 and a half inches all the way around, this shouldn't be considered extremely low. The omni arms are less stiff where they pivot compared to stock, is this intended?
I have Ground Control's coilovers which have a 450 spring in the front. Does this spring do justice for a 92 Civic hatch with a b16?
BTW: thanks for the direct reply omniman. Would you mind commenting on this thread for me too? https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1726725

are you sure that you are only that low?
something doesn't add up. If your only 1.5 inchs low, then your suspension would have to travel, (guess not actuall data) 3 to 4 inchs for that to hit the metal in a car. On cars that are lowered 3 or 4 inchs it can happen easly.
Ok after seeing that you have 450 spring rate, and are only 1.5 inchs low SOMTHING REALLY doesn't add up.

I really don't know what else to say, but I honestly am dropped about an inch and a half: from the the top of the coilover sleeve to the top of the adjustment rings. I'll snap some pics of the situation tomorrow.
Thanks for the concern anyhow.
