18" z06 rims 01 WS6, 18x 10.5 rear 305/35/18 555r
front 18x9.5 285/35/18 555
i took a hammer to the inside well in the rear where i could see it was rubbing, i also had to remove the bump stop and hit that down with a hammer. if someone sits in my back seat it rubs horribly still, and when i take sharp corners/hit a bump i hear it rub really bad. what can i do, i was told not to use a spacer because it can shear the studs. so what can i do

Hit it more with the hammer. Next time My wheels come off i will fit it off with the plasma cutter or just out a spacer on it 
Also running a small spacer wont hurt anything! I ran them for years on my old wheels and took it up over 140-160 many many times and on road trips of over 2,000 miles cruising 80-90mph
