did you tighten your endlinks? you have to use an allen wrench (forgot what size) and 14mm wrench... also, check your sway bar brackets.

It could be that the bars are hitting the a-arm. Check for marks on the bar or the a-arm. If that is the case, you will need to get adjustable endlinks.

did you put it on upside down?

that or like previously stated they arent tightened enough. I suggest that you get a torque wrench and actually torque them to spec instead of just guessing with such a vital part of your car
