I've been searching and reading for hours and saw people having same problem as me.
Anybody able to fix this problem?

I'm using Hotskis spring and when I make sharp turn, tire rubs my fender liner.
Also my rear fender is only 3/4inch away from tire and it rubs when I make sharp turn.
I really like the look of evo after lowering but really hate to hear sounds when I make turn.
Only answer I found was to go back to stock spring or spend hundreds of dollars on coilovers.
I dont do autox or autocross or even goto drag strips so I think coilover is overrate for me. Should I try different brand of springs?

just like what they advice me, get swift springs. i think 1.4 inch drop at front and .8 at rear. they said it's not advisable to really drop the evo. i got the s tech. 2inch front and .9 at rear. i got gram lights optimise 18inch 8.5, 32 offset, 235/40/18, it doesn't rub though but i got a negative camber at my rear.

First, the obvious; Make sure every plastic fastener is still in place. There are two/tree that are tucked far up inside there holding the liner in place.

Second; Consider using a heat gun to reshape the liner. Heat the area for a few seconds and press it into the shape you want with a tool or gloved hand until it cools. Once it's cool, it will hold the new shape.

I know it's not the answer you really want to hear but at least up front, most fenderliner rubbing issues fix themselves
