Did you check all the clips? Maybe some are broken and the fender liner is sagging and that is causing that side to rub. The only other thing I can think of is the suspension may be wearing out, or your coil-overs are not all at the same height?
BTW did you ever sell your other car?

out of all the people i know who rub, its always the passenger side. you can bend the tab back a little bit (i did that and it fixed my rubbing) or you can always add a bit more negative camber to see if it will clear.
btw, if u want to trade still lmk!

can you just remove the liner or will this cause other issues.

i will have to look and see what tab your talking about cause im not sure. but once i can figure it out i will give it a try. your not talking about a part of the fender right? its like a plastic/metal tab something would hook into?

oh and about running without the fender lining, some people say the rocks that fling up can cause little dimples to appear on your fender.

its a little plastic clip that holds the fenderlining onto the fender. i took a hammer and bent mine back a little bit.
