anyone else have this problem on their FC and Stance? This is Ryan's (rspecfd) coilovers on his FC. He had to add a washer to spacer it out so that it wouldn't rub

Yea, but I checked the clearances ahead of time and took a angle grinder to the trailing arms to fit it. Had to take off around 2mm to provide a little bit of clearance.

I did the same with a spacer for a quick fix, that's a good idea to grind the arm a bit for a long term fix. Other than that small interference I am very pleased with them. I went through quite a few spring and shock combos and finally committed to the coilovers. I was worried they might be too harsh like you always hear but their plenty comfortable and have good adjustment too, both height wise and dampening.

Here's when it was starting to rub:
