Default 1.25 Inch drop with spacers?

I've been digging around these forum and the only place I thought I may have a lead was on the sticky but the document is no longer there

I currently have 30mm/rear and 25mm/front on stock 2006 wheels with no issues, however I want to lower 1.25" all around. Does anyone know if this is gonna cause issues with rubbing or camber or anything?

Thanks in advance!

You will need a rear roll and most likely a rear camber kit

Hmm, thank you. Does anyone have a pic possibly of a 1.25" drop with spacers? I dug through a lot of old threads and found tons of pics with the drop but not with the spacing (or with stock rims).

Closest I found was user Cheshirecat with the GF210 drop but the picture wasn't really that visible from a corner angle

If you start here:

And do a search for "Eibach sportlines spacers" you find the following:

Bmurray, do you remember how much you cut the mounts to achieve that look?

Ok, got it. It's weird since I've been searching and a lot of people are cutting different sizes.

Just be careful when cutting that mount, really easy to overdo it...
