I had the Eibachs on for about 2 months - absolutely no problem with the 17" S-Lites with or without passengers in the rear. Only caveat was the front - bit low, so you need to be careful. Performance-wise they were good, improved the handling at the expense of a little harsher ride on rough tarmac.

the rubbing is most likely the clips that hold on the small bit of trim where the bumper and arech trims meet.

I had rubbing and removed that small trim that does not do anything anyway.Problem solved.
