Default Suggestion Lowering on 20"

Alright guys I know 20's are not popular among you guys and they were not either on the Z but since I got a good deal on them I am starting to like them more now. Anyways I want to do a drop but nothing that involves having to get a camber kit or camber wear, so I was looking at tein S or tein H. With either would I have to cut fenders? My rims are 20 x 8, 245/30/20 front and 20 x 10 275/30/20 rear with 20mm all around front and rear. Or any other brand of springs without the use with camber kit or camber wear.

Anything over a 1 inch drop you will need a camber kit... I'm dropped on B&G springs(1 inch all around) and I don't need a camber kit... Just research different springs and find out the drop and spring rates and go from there! GL

Wheel diameter has little to do with lowering the car. Tire size and position matters. Just look at the tire and see if it will clear the fender. If yes its a go.
