I had to cut the lower sway bar end link bushing in half closest to the head of the bolt (sticks out below the control arm) and grind the bolt head 1/2 way off. Then, lots of grinding to the lower control arm. Many test fits/drives to stop contact. Inner rim surface got trashed when I first mounted and backed the car out of the garage. I think I have it solved now but sucks to screw up the wheels!

Almost had same issue with my 17" welds and stock lower control arm. It's only the newer designed 13-15 rear sway bar that mounts further out then the original 10-12 SS sway bar inside mounting location. I had to grind down the sway bar end link bottom bolt for some more clearance
