Default my slicks are rubbing?

the slicks are 22x9x13 MH's. 92 hatch with a coilover kit. its lowered maybe 2 inches. the slick rubs the upper control arm. if i raise it back up, would that keep it from rubbing? my question is, what can i do to make it stop rubbing? thanks

ya the lensos have an offset that only allows up to 8.5" wide slick to fit. the 9's will rub from past experiences. i can suggest a spacer if you have longer lug studs. but i realy dont recommend spacers with the lensos. If you do decide on some RAce wheels liek BOGARTS or WELDS. make sure you get the correct backspace in consideration to the size of slicks that you use.
