Megan Racing springs question

Just installed new wheels and tires and the rear gap doesn't look to ready to accept the 1.5" drop Megan is quoted at...anybody have any problems with this rubbing? Just would rather know before I install them Saturday and find out I jsut wasted all that time...

Any help appreciated
