to my knowledge the tein springs are a little on the soft side. this is potentially whats causing it. Since you have koni yellows you can easily get stiffer springs such such as eibach pros or h&r sports and the problem may go away. the other idea would be to take a hammer and bang out the metal at the top of the tire well. do you have camber adjustable ball joints in?
