Also I know this sounds impossible but the tires in the rear have made deep scratches in the paint of my KYBs (on the outside of the spring seat). I know the wheel and the suspension move together but how the hell is this happening??

The rubbing you hear is either likely the fender lip or the inner fender liner. If it's the lip, you can roll it or have it rolled. Check the SE-R mailing list archives for information on rolling fender lips.
If it's the inner fender liner, you're SOL. I have that problem with my Sentra SE-R. I have none with my G20 with 17x7.5, 45mm offset wheels with 205/40-17 tires.
As for scraping the struts.....
Things move around. Tires are flexible and even metal parts can flex when loads are placed upon them.
