Spring rubbing

I was under the car changing rear end fluid and noticed this problem. Can anybody help figure out what is going on. The owner before me did lower the car.

Re: Spring rubbing

See if the spring looks like this at the bottom. Perhaps the PO cut the spring off to lower the car and it doesn't fit anymore.
