Default don't RUB me the wrong way

I was going to order some 19's, what's the lowest I can drop my car and still not rub? Also, what kind of kit do I need for the drop and how much are they!?

LOL.. dig that topic you can drop 1" but your tires will be limited to 285s in the back.. which is plenty. eibach will give you about an inch drop and others, such as tein will give you half. My body kit already gave me an inch of lower stance so.. don't have much room. springs are dirt cheap.. 130.

I wanna get some 295s butt, I'll have to roll the fenders, I'm afraid.

why 275/45/19 in the rears? Do you have VDC?

I had the Eibach Srings with 295/35/19 in the rears and 255/35/19 in the front. No Rubbing. It will depend on the off-set of your wheels.

Your all missing the key factor and thats OFFSET, you could run a 295 slammed with the correct offset, or run a 275 and crazy offset and rub stock....
