^ Choose your own adventure -- I'm sure you haven't posted a video camera there to show if it is impacting or rubbing either... 2in. is a lot of drop -- you have very little shock travel -- you must be riding your bump stops... Stock shocks too? eek!

no i havent video taped my tires... thats retarded, if theyre wareign right thats it
and actually we put some black paint on bump stops and went and hit a few decent bumps at about 15 mph, and none of the paint traveled because i would have taken them back off
and no they are not stock shocks, theyre replaced all the way around
i havent once felt the bump stops hit even when launching

^ No, the purpose of spacers it to keep wheels off the wheel well, esp. for rough roads.

What shocks do you have now? Your sig doesn't say. You might want to read this too, 2" is really a bit much:

those are my shocks
i read through all that crap, i went to the track two weeks before and did 2.1 in 60 ft, after springs (only change) i did 1.95, so as far as performance problems? none less body roll is less weight transfer is better launch
and everyones a bunch of crybabys, have you seen a pic of my "exhaust" its literally a bullet style muffler on the end of my header, they point down because of everything under there, theyre still 2 inches off the ground, they barley ever scrape and i live in mi, my car also feels better at high speeds, and in corners
