Well, I'm trying to deal with my rubbing issues and I'd like to stay with the same tire size but if I can't fix it through better suspention parts, I'll change.
I have 275/40/17's on the rear and they rub when I go over big things like drive ways or with people in the back.
What can I do to fix it? I'd like to also lower the car but I'm afraid the rubbing will just get horrible
thanks
My entire suspention is stock BTW

This is from what I remember from when I had a fox... so use caution.
If you go to aftermarket lower control arms, such as the MM's, you can get rid of the quad shocks. Which will probably keep you from rubbing while cornering.
And other than that you can probably take it to a reputable body shop and have the lips on the quarter panel rolled so you get a bit of clearance. Other than that you may need be really careful what springs you run and how far you can drop it.
There was a badass LX in the pictures from the Fosters Freeze event that had that setup on it. That's what I'm planning to do once I get another fox body.
