Re: Looking for advice

With a 5 inch drop in the front. This kit is mostly designed for 17” and taller rims. If you have a 15” or 16” wheel ,your rim may be rubbing on the lower control arm. Or your tire may be rubbing on the inside of the fender opening lip. The tires look pretty tall. I had to roll a baseball bat under the fender lip on the inside. Between the tire and inside fender lips by pulling the car back and forth. It could be one or both. I had to do both. If both of these are ok. Turn your wheel full lock and shine a light and look for contact. Here’s a pic of were to look. Looks like someone used a cutting torch in the picture. A torch will melt the lower ball joint. I just used a hand cut off wheel and then a Hand grinder. Just don’t grind off to much
