s13 silvia stock suspension rubbing on tire? (pic) - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

So I just bought this 1990 rhd silvia, and I noticed that the passenger side suspension is literally sitting right above the tire- if not on the tire.

The tires on these wheels are new, and they are starting to get a worn area because of the rubbing.

Is this a sign that the springs are bad? I dont think a bad shock would cause this?

On the other side there is no rubbing, and the clearance is about 2 centimeters from tire to suspension.
