******Should i lower it???******
******Should i lower it???****** Iv'e got subframe connectors / Adj PHB / Adj LCA / and a tranny mount TA all from UMI Performance (great peices by the way). I also have the car on 11.5x17 and 10.5x17 CCW Classics. anyway im looking to get Koni SAs for my next mod, but i was wondering if i should also lower it. the car is a daily driver, and the 315 GSD3s on the back dont tuck into the fender wells. they stick out about a 1/2 inch or so, and i was worried about them hitting the rear fenders. anyone have a similar set-up and have you ever hit your rear fenders?? Seems like it would do alot of damage. should i lower it? or should i stick with the stock springs and get some swaybars instead?
the roads here arn't the best, but my main concern isn't with low speed regular driving. i dont want to hit my fender with my tires in the middle of a high speed turn or anything... is this unheard of or is it possible??
i have 11's lowered and with ppl in the back it cuts the edge of the tire, thats why i dont carry ppl anymore, im sure if i rolled the fender it would help, you have any pics of your car??
SSilverSSurfer: no not yet, but when i get the new shocks and a few more little goodies on ill be post whoreing it everywhere lol
Does anyone have their tires stick out PAST the fender like mine? i know some ppl with 315s can have their tires tucked up in the fender, but mine wont lol

We have 315's on the rear with Hotchkis 1" drop springs, and get a little rubbing if the car hits a big bump at "high" (
) speed... Otherwise they are fine. Last edited by Azrael; Aug 18, 2006 at 05:26 PM.

for me its not a matter of rolling the fenders. i dont think the tires would clear the rear fenders at all... they seem to stick out about a 1/4-1/2 an inch. its not noticable unless your looking right on top of the rear wheels.
