You can roll the fenders, but I think most people have installed adjustable front upper control arms to get the necessary camber to clear. SPL is the best solution.

Thank you!

rolling fenders is easy, you should do that regardless for max clearance
you definitely need FUCAs, and SPL is the best and only option you should consider. do it right and while you're at it, coilovers and the SPL rear arms too

That's going to look nice once you lower the car and add camber. You may want to run a smaller spacer in the rear, maybe a 15mm. The amount of camber you will need to get the tire back under the quarter will make the car a little less fun to drive if you care about that sort of thing.

Yes did the rolling. It helped a lot. So far, no rubbing. Suprising since I'm on stock struts (70k miles). Looking into coilovers. I still dont know the difference between the true coils or OEM mounted coils.

True coil means the spring is wrapped around the damper
OEM type is divorced. Just look at your read suspension.. the springs sit in a bucket apart from the damper This change in geometry affects what spring rate to choose

The front is a true coil-over. Like OZ said. The OEM rear is a divorced style. When changing the rear to a true style of coil-over. You can't use the same spring rates as a divorced style. The divorced style is a higher rate.
