At the ride height I used, I never scraped the bottom of the car on any driveways, curbs, or anything like that. With a front lip I definitely would've, which is why I never added one.

In terms of rubbing, the front end had some minor rubbing over large dips that sorted itself out once the fender liner/tires got a little worn. Upon closer inspection It was only the top of the tire occasionally hitting the fender liner so it wasn't a concern.

I also had some rubbing in the rear by the fender liner that I sorted out with a dremel because I was worried about some metal tabs making contact with the tires and I didn't want anything catastrophic happening at high speed:

Also keep in mind I only put 11k miles on the car in the 4.5 years I owned it so I can't really talk about how it stood the test of time. But If you want to avoid any rubbing issues either don't lower it as much as I did, and/or use 12mm spacers instead of 15.
