Lines in prints (lemmy.world)

Just about all of my prints have these lines at around the same heights, and I can't figure out why. I tried changing the nozzle, changing the layer height from 0.15 to 0.12, and changing the speed from 60mm to 40mm. All of these seemed to have helped a bit, yet they remain. I was thinking maybe as the prints get to a certain height, the shaking of the bed (Prusa MK2) caused the layers to be slightly offset perhaps. Anyone have any other ideas?

It does seem like one of the screws it touching the side of the stabilizer at the top, and the other is perfectly straight and isn't, so I might need to look into that. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
