Does the rear tires rub when you slam second gear(burn second) and car dips down?

If it does rub... will this be enough force to destroy my rear fenders?

I do drive it fast 1/4 of the time.

Thanks Guys!

From what I know too it should be firmer and less squatting on hitting second so I'll order them in a few days.

These springs really drop the car. I have seen this in person and it looks awesome!

The other 2 I had my eye on was the Tein S techs and the new Eibach Sportline but both of those are lower than the H&R and seem to require more Mods and care.

I have to park in a parking garage every day and go up and down 3 ramps so I think the H&R are enough of a drop any more would be too much for me.

^^ well if you want S-tech mine will be off my car in a week bc I'm switching to coils, PM me if interested.

I ran my S-techs all by themselves and just got an alignment, nothing else and my car was fine
