This is my current problem. Solutions? The paddle Hits the torsion. Set up for I.R.S currently. Using my phone, so can't add photos.

Dave called it. Shorter bars, or longer arms. Or, go to coilovers and eliminate those pesky torsion bars altogether.  I've got a couple of rear torsion housings with short bars if you want to go that route. |

Could sell them. I have three pair. Those are too rich for my budget. |

I'm guessing your paddles are more than 31"? The paddles are 1300's on I believe a 10" rim. A "stock" rim that has been widened. |

31" tall. Anything more than that and they rub.
