if it's just the back that's rubbing, like turbocon86 suggested, it's probably sagging springs. very common, both our sedans are like that. spacers should solve it. others have used moog cargo springs + seem to like them. I'm thinking I'll get a set for our 1993...
I just went through fixing the ride height on our 9-5 (9-5's have massive ride height problems: they eat tires because of sag dependent toe/camber + the springs sag way too easily)... what you could do is measure your ride height + can compare... measure from the center of the wheel straight up to the outside edge of the fender (with the car on the ground of course)... you can compare front to back... I'll do mine later. I know they are bad, but I don't run 16" wheels so it doesn't affect much other than the look...
