Need help from slammed guys!
i just lowered my car a ton and it sounds like the tires are hitting something under the front fender when the suspension compresses a good amount...its all plastic stuff under the fender, so am i in danger of hurting something?...doesn't seem like its hurting the tires, but it just sounds kinda loud...anyone else experience this?...i think it might be the plastic fender liner, but i'm not sure...here's how low i am:

DJ...I was hitting the screws on the inside of the outer lip up top. I just removed those on the top, tucked the liner into the lip and then folded the lip back some and I'm good to go now. That may be where you're hitting. W/out really hearing it I really have no clue though.

wow...your ride looks good. You should probably raise the back a little though. The front looks slightly higher than the back. What are the specs on the wheels please? offset?

I'm having the same problem on 03 Rays. Tried looking but haven't had a chance to really checkout what is causing the noise. I think mine only makes noise from the front driver side.

had the same problem with my setup before.. took it to the track and heard super loud rubbing sounds. got home and realized the tires were going INTO the frame (already rubbed through fender liner) and the frame was actually slicing into the tires.
