My guess sounds simple, but tyres are too big. They are 68mm diameter larger than standard and 10mm wider. The largest you are able to actually go legally is 50mm meaning 25mm lift. The rubbing is the least of your worries if you have a bad accident!

Im guess ya have standard rims? Fix... get smaller tyres or change ya rims to a more negative offset.

I'd be pretty happy if I only go rub on the sway bar.

My 285s on 17x8 p10 rub on everything... they have ripped the flares off on the rear, they rub on the bulbar (Buds Custom), the UCA, the front flare, the sway bar... but I admit that I'm lazy and haven't removed the mud guard which gets lightly rubbed on.

A bit of rub on the sway bar isn't much to worry about in my experience.
I might be wrong.
