I'm just wondering what a "happy" set-up is between lowering/bigger wheels and rubbing issues.

I'm lowered approx 1.5" all around (trd springs, kyb/oem shocks) with 33+, 18x7.5 225/40/18 wheels and am having some rubbing issues from the rear. Since the upgrade from the 17's (17x7.5, 215/45/17, 33+) the rubbing seems to have increased dramatically. Before it would only be over signifigant bumps, or at high (35+mph) speeds, but now I'm rubbing on smaller bumps and at lesser speeds >10mph.

I believe the PO told me the sway bars/bushings could be causing this noise as well. How would I check to see what is causing me to rub, whether it is the sways or the wheels
