I have my sedan lowered on tanabes for over a year now and never had any rubbing issues. I have 19inch with proper offset but lateley one corner has been rubbing when I have people in the back. passenger side rear.

Could it be that my shocks or the springs themselves are tiring?

 

perhaps... but if you add weight, the spring will compress and the wheelwell will have less room for play... therefore, you will rub *shrugs*?

 

Over time the spring will sag a little more and the strut (is it oem?) will wear out so it might come down a bit.

 

It is OEM.

I am going to pull the wheel off and see where it is rubbing and may have to roll my fenders.
