Default rear rubs!!! :-(

I receltly added 245/40 18's on AT Italia Flash rims. Now when I hit bumps the outside rear tire rubs the quarter panel. I have Koni shocks struts with Intrax springs. The Koni's are on the stiffest setting. Other than bump or divets in the road the wheel have no rubbing problems? Does anyone have suggestions how I can fix this? Is there such a thing as spring perch spacers? Please advise..!

Thanks,
WEGGY

Get tires that fit into the wheel wells without risk of rubbing or bumping. What is the max size reccomended on the inside of the door for tire size? Or just remove the quartepanels and fly around, because you know you are the wiz!!!
