It happened on mine! I just changed the spring on my rear shock to a stiffer one and it was all good.

I rode a Slash 5 Coil for 4 or 5 months this season, very good bike. I don't think I ever had the tire hit the tube, but I did buzz my seat a few times,

I'm riding a Slash 5 Air. Never come close to the seat or seat tube and it's been rocked pretty well.

You look pretty light. I weight well over 200lbs, I'm sure that plays a factor.
