Can i lower?

Just bought 20" rims they are 20x18.5 all around. In the rear 255/35/20 and front 245/30/20 can i lower it? Will there be a problem with it rubbing?

20x18.5?!?! You'll be rubbing unless you higher the car lol I believe you meant to say 8.5 ... you shouldn't have any issues with rubbing with a nice drop on your car man. Look into Eibach Pro Kit lowering springs. I have them now and love them.

I have 20x8.5 right now and I'm on eibach pro kit. Got 20mm spacers in the front and 25mm in the rear to flush the wheels out a bit. Just trimmed my rear fender liners today. They weren't touching, just for my peace of mind.

This is a direct quote from Brad (blnewt)... I don't want to take credit for his writting....

"The drop rate is pretty much this~
Tein H Tech & Tanabe are mild (in the 1.25" range)
Eibach & Swift (1.5" give or take)
Tein S Tech around 2"
H&R are typically the deepest at a bit over 2"

This post alone should be stickied somewhere! I'm pretty scared about my rubbing on the S Techs.
