Lowering Issues
I made a post of the B16a swap I was working on and my engine is now up and running fine without any problems. Until further tuning I'll have to better my suspension and brakes.
I was advised to lower my car first then decide on my wheel size; which I did. Haven't done the measurement yet but I am on stock wheels and get a jumping on my right side (driver side) when cornering hard left. I was told that because of no camber my axles hit the inside. I'm going to get coil overs however; probably Yellow's+GC. The springs i now have are cheap HP Design's which I got from a friend. Don't even know the rates.
What would be this jumping? It feels like something is hitting and it's certainly not tires to a fender. Would camber fix this? Before buying good coilovers, I want to be sure if to get a camber kit or not. I'll be using Varrstoen V1's 16x8 +15. Thanks !

Check to make sure nothing is loose and all of your ball joints don't have any play. There's no possible way your axles are hitting anything due to camber. If your axles were hitting anything there would be defined mark on the axle and whatever part it was rubbing / spinning up against.
Check your axle CV joints too, maybe they are a bit worn out?
I have 225/45r15 on 15x8 +25 wheels and I'm relatively low. I had to get a front / rear camber kit because i would get a tiny bit of rub on the fenders even after rolling them. I have 12k / 8k spring rates. You'll probably want to get camber kits for those low offset big wheels.

I know your on 13's,hubcaps like a bossssss
I meant once you have the 16's on. Shocks can make pretty awful noises when they bottom out. If you run on blown shocks for long enough the piston shaft can sometimes develop side to side play that can bind
Car looks pretty darn clean, hope you like the wheels once they are on!
