Hey Guys,
I have a Gen 3.5 I4 that I want to drop. I have 215/50R17's on the corners and dont have any rub at all. Anyone know if I can drop it an 1.5"-2" with 17's and still have no rub?

Thanks Guys

This doesn't answer your question but is more of an FYI: mine has 225/50R17 with stock springs and the front tires sometimes hit the inner apron during full compression.

The struts dampening effort is excellent, but the tires still touch the apron and keep it clear of road scum. In order to make it not bottem the spring rate needs to go way up and I'm thinken she' not going to ride so nice..... imo...

Guys - post up your advertised spring rates/drop height and what height she ended up at. Then TELL US, HOW DOES IT RIDE!

Regards,
