first try to bring your camber in more ( u will go through tires,and have the butterfly effect, and won't handle as good), If that dosen't help u can take a big fucking hammer (ghetto way) and pull off your fender lining, and u will see metal that sticks out smack it, so it becomes flat.. basically roll the outer fender, and teh inner middle portion is what u are going to be rollin to accomdate those wheels

What sidewall profile are you running? 205/40/17?
My bet is that your rolling circumference is a tad larger than stock, which is causing you to rub when the suspension is under load.

Is the offset for your car? I had that happen once when I had a set of 17 inch tenzo sinko r's w/205-40-17 on my 2 inch drop w/a camber kit. The deal was on a trade and the lug pattern was 4x100 so it fit, but I think the offset was wrong since it rubbed on u-turns. Later on down the line I had a set of 17 inch rev m-6 w/205-40-17 and those were new. Prior to the order the guy I spoke w/asked specifics on my yr. make and model in-order to avoid rubbing issues. Well, those wheels never rubbed.
