Anyone Else run GC coil-overs on their 1st gen?

Well I went to an AutoX this weekend in my GSL-SE and had teh coil-overs set just a hair to low... I managed to shine up the insde of the fender egde real nice with my tire. (which is now pretty much trashed because it got so chewed up.)

My question is this. About what height do most of you run your spring perches at? I had it about halfway down and it worked fine on teh street with 205/45-16 on 16x7, but when I ran the autoX I rubbed the crap outta my 13x8 235/45-13's. They didn't rub on turning, more on breaking, right at the top of the fender....


also, quick easy ways to paint the inner fender so it doesn't rust? Crap....

I run mine at the legal IT limit. rocker panel 5" above the ground. But I run 13x7 wheels w/4" backspace, w/225/50/13 hoosiers, fender lips rolled under.
