We have a bunch of customers with that same tire/wheel size who have longtubes and use our BMR lowering springs without any issues. Our springs will give your vehicle 1.25" drop which is enough of a drop to be noticeable but not too much to were you will have any ground clearance issues. Here is a picture of a friend's car that has your exact setup but also has our BMR lowering springs installed, he daily drives the car alot and has put on about 30k miles since we installed the springs on his car and he has had absolutely no issues.

If there is anything we can do for you let me know.
