Everyone Lowers their car, but how many have lifted it?

I purchased rear wheel spacers for my 2017 RS 1LT, the only problem is that the rear tire rubs the outer fender slightly when hitting big dips on the road, Anyway.... How many of you have slightly lifted the rear suspension, and how did you do it???

I only need about a half inch to an inch more clearance, and hate to put a new set of coil-overs on, but may half too in the end...

Yeah, it's a cheap solution, but makes for one rough ride...

What size tires did you put on it that you got it to rub? Is the spacer making it rub?

I didn’t lift but I did only lower the front 1.5 so it has that ass up stance and some less trained eyes think I raised the back. Especially when it’s sitting on meatier 315s in the back.

Probably better to roll the fender than raise the car, especially since the front is already dropped. However another option would be to look into adding a space to the bump stop. It will ride rougher over large bumps though.

can you post a picture of your wheel fitment? it would be very unusual to add ride height.

So here's the problem, the Bilstein idea might be the solution, or just coil overs
