    Rear tire clearance issue

    Hello,

    Just finished my MKIII build and starting to put miles on the car. During shakeout drive I noticed some binding/hopping in the rear. Upon further inspection I noticed that my rear tires are contacting what I think are the lower shock perches and its gouging the brand new tires pretty badly.

    I am running the 15 inch halibrands with Cooper Cobra 295/50 15s in the back. I have a ford 8.8 with the 3 link.

    I have 3mm spacers on order to try to get the tires out a bit from the rest of the frame but if anybody else has a solution I am all ears.

    Also if you look in the first photo the red koni shock looks to be contacting some suspension bits as well. Any thought on this?

    Thanks!
    Dan
