Default Tires rubbing wheel well

My turning radius is super bad right now because the tires are rubbing the inside of the fender. I have raised the car as much as I can on coilovers. I bought this car just recently. I was wondering if there is anything I can do to keep it low but avoid rubbing and avoid buying a whole set of new tires.

Can roll and pull the fenders, or raise the car.

Honestly tho just trade or sell the wheels/tires so you can get some that fit.

Keep that "stance" and it'll rub, or buy wheels that fit and roll fenders...

if you raised the car as high as possible and it still looks like that, you have cheap *** suspension parts. Replace that ebay crap.

Do a better job at picking your rims?

If the car came with it then sell it?

Yes if you look at the center of the wheels relative to the "rail" along the bottom of the body, the front of the car is still way lower than the back.
