Yes they were already on the car when I got it. Only one per side.
Those things are evil and they are likely what is causing your spring to bow and hit the frame. Normally if they are used you have to use two of them on opposite sides to keep the spring from bowing. Try removing them and see if it stops.
it sounds like Dhutton has it right
also the SB springs are likley too soft, it would depend on where the shinny spots are is the coil going into bind?? as in collapsing onto itself? or just rubbing onthe frame.
your idea to switch to that Speedtech stuff doesn't sound bad!!

It is just rubbing from what I can tell. I like the speed tech option. I had always planned on changing all that stuff out. I might pull the spacers out and drive it around but I need to be carful as it will be sitting low on top of 19 inch Rushforths.

If you can't remove them add a second one to each spring to even things out. You can get them on ebay for $20.
Well I got them out and gave her a test ride today. Much better. I still feel some slight rubbing under harder turns but no where near what it was. But there is still something going on with that side. I think the spring could be bent or as previously discussed the LCA bushings being bad. I think the speed tech stuff will go a long way in improving everything.
