I'm running the BAT kit with Koni's, RS-5's and 215/45's and I have rubbing issues in the front. I just switched over from H&R's and never had this problem. It's mainly over bigger dips or uneven rolls in the pavement. The BAT's sit just about even with the HR's in the front, maybe a smidge higher. What gives?



It's called spring rate. From what you just said I would assume that the BAT springs are less stiff then the H&R's, therefore allowing more suspension travel to occur.
