Lowered + Spacers issue? *slicing outer tire wall
Wondering if anyone else is having the same issue with these specs? Possible solutions?
I have 25mm spacers up front with factory tire size and lowered. Not sure if my suspension is just too soft or Just too low or maybe I’m driving it too hard but when I hit certain turns it rubs and cuts the edge of the tire as shown in picture below. I relocated bunper tab already but it seems to be hitting on the metal next to it *see picture

I think it's a combination of how low you dropped it and the spacer.
If you're on coils, try raising it up.
If you're on springs, which I would guess are RSR Superdowns, then try a 20mm spacer...but honestly looking at the amount of rubbing, I think you need to remove the spacer altogether.
At least remove it to see if the rubbing stops first.

I’m on coilovers
agreed, raising it up a bit would be the right thing to do. Might try switching over to 20mm up front first, think that should do the trick. Really like how it sits as of now but might have to adjust if I want to save my tires..

You could try the 20mm spacers, but from the scars on the tires, it may not be enough, you might still have to raise it a little. And the Firestones are already a narrow tire...imagine if those were Michelins...there would be tire confetti everywhere lol!

I put 25mm on the rear and it rubbed for a few days.. just left temporary marks.. not actual slices like this. Still driving on that tire today
