Quick question, I have a 2000, and when they did my alignment yesterday, they lowered the car another 1/2 inch in the rear. It now sits a lot better, and I'm very pleased. Last night I had it out, and as I was hitting bumps, the passenger side was rubbing, driver side was fine. Im sure I can roll the fender and be ok, but the car HAS a panhard bar. Are those adjustable? or if I move that around I will have to go back to the alignment shop? This is a daily, so Im trying to keep the costs down. Whats the max tire size these can run? Im currently running 275 R888s. Im going to try to post an old pic, so you get an idea of ride hight. Thank you.

I believe it happens because I have a 2002 gt and the driver's side fender has been rolled, but not the pass side. It comes up clean on Carfax and I can tell the quarters are stock so I guess it happens to mine. I have had it happen on fox body's before too.
