so this car does not want to go low, but i'm forcing it to. i tend to rub more on the passenger side when the suspension loads from a bump. they are megan coilovers 12k rate. just the fronts. the thing is slammed i just wanna know...should i up the dampening? tighten the pre load on the springs? i'm 6 clicks from hardest dampening. any advice is much appreciated i don't wanna tub this thing!

Get lower profile tires?
Get some more camber?
Dial up the coilovers?

Pretty simple.

These are the things you need to do in this order to assure you don't rub.

1. Pull the fender liners.

2. Roll the fenders.

3. If needed stretch tires.

Also ( as if Im one to talk ) get an alignment.

Im willing to bet its the liners if you haven't pulled them yet.
