Has anyone had a problem with rubbing under full load? (4 adults in the car) Any remedies?

My mudflaps used to touch the ground over speed bumps with four adults but no other rubbing problems. I took them off.

Took what off, the mudflaps or the four adults?

Only problem I had was when I drove up here to alaska from Ontario with my car loaded. I was sitting pretty low but only hit when going (very slowly I might add) over speed bumps I came across. Other then that, no problems. Have had 4 adults in the car, no incidents. Of course the car did not sit as low with them as it did loaded up for my move.

The adults, there was 2 stuck to the front bumper and 1 stuck to the back, I remained in the car.

I've got rear spacers and it took 4 adults on a hilly road to rub the side walls

MadBill runs 275/40/17 on 10" wide wheels in the summer and they don't rub so forget about it!

what about eibachs? The sportlines? I just found a great deal for 100 buck NIB.

Sportlines for $100 is a great deal from what I remember when shopping for springs a couple years ago. There were two types of Eibachs and one was lower than the other. If it's the lower one, it's just a tad higher than the S-techs. I'd take them over the S-techs, although I am very happy with the S-techs. I once had 6 adults in my car with the S-techs and it didn't rub, but it sure was low.

I got mail today! WOOOOOT! I have no idea what I am doing, so on a scale 1-10 how hard are they to install?

10 if you don't know what your doing... 5 if you do.

I had 18" on my car and with the S-techs I had rubbing problems in the front while driving. I went to 17" and have not had any problems. If you do go with 18" make sure you get the right saries tires.
