had the car for about 2 weeks now, just blacked out the corners and 3rd brake light and have some 19's awaiting to be put on :D

Question, i read up about drops but i'm planning on putting 19x8.5 rims on my car and was wondering from opinions how bad will the car tires rub if i drop the car on sprint springs? I'm planning on rolling my fenders in near future but just trying to see if they would tear up my tires quickly if i don't.

Thanks

the offset is around +38 and +40 but since sprint sit lower than s techs i'm still a littel worried. my tire size is 235 by 35.

how do you like the ride height with the s techs on 19's, i'm trying to reach somewhere near wheel tuck with springs, i'm investing money into coilovers but want to drop my car since that will take some time lol



this was my previous project, so i'm looking to see what i can do with my new girl, will take time though

to this
