Default Top Fender Rubbing Problem

Specs:
17's TSW Fly Wheels
205/40/17
R*SR Drop Springs
Stock shocks

I'm having BODY rubbing issues and its tearing up my tires bit-by-bit. Its rubbing on the top of the fender. On the top of the fender, it has half-an-inch of metal sticking out and that's what's hitting my tires.

Any solutions for my problem? And also on this shock, it sits lower than the other three shocks, blown shock?

Thank you

Roll your fenders. Either get a baseball bat and a heating gun ( hood status ) or get a fender rolling kit from Tirerack or one of those places out there. Simple process and you can then go wider if you liked. about your shock, you should change out the oem if your lowering it because it will fail sooner or later.
