Ok. Some of you might remember that I was having trouble with my 91 GT rubbing the rear tires after I switched over to 5- lug disc out back. I had used the SN95 axles and concluded that was my problem. So I ordered the Northracecars brackets and installed the shorter ranger axles. Guess what? I'm still rubbing my outside fender. I am so frusterated with this...I already extensively rolled my rear fenders and it still rubs around corners and stuff. I have 17X9 03 Cobra Wheels with 275 width Nittos on the back. I think my biggest problem are my springs. They lowered my car way too much. (They are H&R supersports). I've seen a lot of people running 17X9's with 275's in the rear, what is my car's deal? Here is picture....

My .02 quick fix answer would be to get some adjustable lower control arms and turn em up till the rubbing goes away. Probably not the elegant solution you were looking for.
