people with rally armor mudflaps

Anyone running the rally armor mud flaps with a drop in the suspension.

I'm still waiting for my vishnu ohlins to come in. I've got the rally armor mud flaps on right now, but after i put the coilovers on i think they will be too low.

Anybody have any experience with this?

I think i'm gonna have to modify the mud flaps by cutting an inch of the bottom.
I'm open to suggesstions

I'm running rally armor mud flaps + megan coilovers, I have the drop out of the box so its about an inch or inch and a half and no scraping issues yet. I also have a steep driveway and park in a horrible parking lot, the only thing I ever scrape is my bumper.

a buddy of mine has them with the tein flex coilovers, and he uses the scratching sound of the mudlaps when he is going up an incline to tell him he needs to cut the wheel more of hes going to scrape his bumper lol

I think you would be able to vertically notch out the screw wholes and move the flaps up a little, anyone agree?

I have the flaps, even with stock suspension I'd still scratch them on uneven roads every now and then, probably happened about a handful of times, no biggie though the scratches can't be seen. On a side note I did however cut off a piece from the right rear flap because it does not clear the exhaust and I don't want it be melted off by the heat, not sure if that'll be the case for the IX, the piece I cut off is about 1 inch by 3 inches.

Can't really drill out the front mud flap anymore then it already is, on the version 2's they're pretty thin on one or two of the holes.

i have them with hotchkis springs 1.0" - 1.5" drop
i clear baby speed bumps, can go up the driveways without inching it up. Some things will scrape and ruff the edges up.
