Help on springs? I have a 1999 Camaro 3.8 and was wondering if its possible for me to lower my car 1 inch in the front and 1.5 inches on the back without rolling fenders or having front tire rub when I turn. 
and any suggestion on certain springs I should get would help.
My tire sizes- Front: 255/45/17, Back: 275/40/17.

Strano or BMR springs will work just fine. You'll also need an adjustable panhard bar, to get the rear axle centered under the car, after you lower it. As long as your wheel offsets are correct, there should be no clearance problems...

Strano Springs are supposed to be the best for the ride.. Doubled with Koni single adjustable shocks. And the adjustable PHB. Depending on what driving you do, you MAY need the LCA Relo brackets. LCA's parallel with the road for 1/4 mile and LCA's at a slight angle up for Autox, IIRC.

Call Strano and ask him what he recommends for the V6 and he will help you out.
