Front wheel rubbing front bumper hanger
Hi there all,
I am new here so maybe a little context. I have a 2012 Evo X with the SST.
A couple months back I installed the Eibach Prokit Lowering springs and Eibach 25mm spaces.
The car drop was great and no rubbing.
Last week I installed a set of 18"x9.5J Rota Grids running a 255/40R18 Yokohama AD08 tire.
Now unfortunately I am rubbing. The rears I am not worried about as it is a small fender roll will resolve that.
The fronts however have me a little more concerned as it is rubbing directly on the bolt, and clip holding the bumper to the hanger. The caster from the alignment shop was ~4.10'
Any advice?
Would coilovers help?

I've seen some guys running clips on the outside. No idea what you call them.
I assume this is part style but also maybe to hold the bumper on with large wheels.
