Default focus lowering

I have just fitted a pi 50mm lowering kit and its rubbing quite badly when going around tight corners on both left and right bends. i have also put the st 170 brakes on also. The car is on 17's does anyone know of any solutions.

Smaller wheels or less drop, or look where it rubs and modify the body
