So bigger diameter springs will clear the turnbuckles?
The reason the AE springs rub is that the springs fold in the middle when the compress. Other wise they will have more clearance. Going with a Losi or Avid spring is better for performance but will still rub. I have yet to see any spring not rub the turnbuckle.
