my springs are black, not sure the blue ones are for your car. That could be the issue. If stock wheels/tires still hit then I'd say the problem is incorrect springs.
I had thought from op that it was rubbing the outer wheel not inside plaster liner. There is no way the proper springs would do that unless you were running wider and taller tires.

Ordered them from H&R directly to fit my 2003 4S. Perhaps colour change? Here's what was ordered. Colours of the springs does not dictate the type of springs you have, it's the numbers that's printed on the springs that matters.
Going to put back the original s rims that came with the car. The BBS that I have on are not that far off the original. The fronts are 8x18's and rears are 10x18's so they are only 1" off. The Pirelli rubbers I have on are same specs at 295/30 rears and 225/40's fronts.

Colors could have changed, I got mine in 04, but those look like Eibach lowering springs not H&R, Also model says only 2003 911, you have a C4S which has completely different suspension then a C2/C4 03 911.
I had no problem with my H&R springs with koni yellow combo. The ride is pretty comfortable.
What you probably need is proper wheels for widebody. Beside, wouldn't 45mm spacers give a lot of stress on the wheel bearings?
Hey Terrence, I'm going to put back the original 4S rims tomorrow..and remove the spacers. As for proper wheels for widebody....the BBS that came with the car when I purchased it is what is recommended for the 2003 4S widebody by BBS on their website so that's what the original owner of the car purchased. The front rim specs are identical to the original 4S Porsche Rims (Both are 8Jx18), and the rear has a difference of 1" (Original 4S rims are 11Jx18, the BBS are 10Jx18)....
Haven't checked the offset on the BBS, seems to be same as the 4S rims. I'm putting the BBS rims up on kijiji. Putting back the 4S rims :-). Will run the Yokohamas on it now and will take off the pirellis that's on the BBS and save them for next seasons use on the 4S rims.
