Default To panhard bar or not to panhard bar. that is the question

Hey guys I have a question .. So the SS I just bought was lowered about 1.25 in the front with New shocks installed as well. The previous owner gave me the rear springs but they havent been installed. I really want to throw them in but dont have the cash right now for an adjustable panhard. Im running 305/35R18 right now.. what do you guys think? will I need a panhard bar right away or can i run it without one for the time being??

I'd put them on and load the trunk area down with 250-350lbs and check for sidewall to fender lip contact. If you're going to have clearance issues it most likely will be on the passenger side.
If there's a clearance issue just roll the fender lips.

We do the 350 lb test all the time to check clearances.

If things get funky, we have this cost effective unit:
