haha... so I have good buddy who is a mechanic here (he does most of the mechanic work I choose not to do) and he pushs monroe struts and springs... we put a set of those on and found that fixed the issue... but, we found whats really causing the rub.... the rear fender area of this car was hit be some moron in a truck before I bought it.... and well... it seems the edge of the fender is also bent in about an inch or so.... and so the wheel rubs the edge of the fender... awsome I know... now off to do some body work... fml.
