17x11 rub
How much space do you have?
Oh, mines is also stock height and I have a solid BMR panhard bar.
I'm running a 17x11 with a 50mm offset. I'm lowered on BMR springs, 50/50 shocks and run an adjustable panhard bar. No rubbing issues here.
Check and see if your rearend is square under the car.

^no, if you have passengers and hit a bump it may cut up the sidewall a little, but it wont hurt anything.
mines also lowered 2 inches

I have 36mm offset 17x11 ZR1s and 2" springs. I rolled the fenders just to be safe and use a Founders adjustable PHB. there was slight rubbing on the drivers side but some tweaking with the phb and everything is perfect
I was going w/founders suspension soon. How do you like your PHB? Which type are you running?
I have the single adjustable poly/rod end version - I love it. Very well packaged, super fast shipping and you can't beat their prices. If installed correctly, I can adjust it in just a few minutes with the car on the ground

i have black zr1s i got off tomzwheels a few years ago. im not sure what or where it rub i havent checked. but when i get in to a hard turn i hear a rub. i have stock springs and the slp blistine shocks. i dont even know if my rear is centered. i dont know much about suspension and the PHB. i got 173k miles on the car tho.
On my Z28 I had the 17x11" rim with 315/35/17 Nitto 555r and I had to cut the bumpstops off and I autocrossed on shity stock suspension and it didnt rub at all and I had a **** load of body roll!

When I had a poly/poly adj. bar (Spohn) I would still get rubbing (to much deflection from the poly IMO), and it seemed I could never keep that PHB centered. I didn't really care for that adj. nut in the center of the bar either. I then went with a rod/rod adj. bar and haven't had any trouble since. Instead of just buying 'off the rack', I sourced the bar, rod ends and hardware and 'made' my own PHB. There's threads about making your own PHB on Frrax if that's what you want to do. Not that I thought I could make a better bar then what was out there, it was just something I wanted to do.
