Just ordered some new rims 20 x 8.5 in the front with a +38 offset with 255/35 20 rubber and 20 x 10 in the back with a +44 offset with 295/30 20 rubber on those.

What I am trying to determine is what springs to get and the amount of front and back lower that would be safe with my new wheel and tire setup. Want to avoid rubbing

I think I will also be getting an adjustable pan hard bar to make sure the rear end is centered. Hopefully they can get the car alinged within specs without having to buy caster/camber plates also.

Thanks,
Griff!

 

I bought Eibach springs... on ebay. 2" up front and 1.5 on back. With my 20"..
It dosent rub

 

H&R Race Springs, 1.5 front 1.4 rear, similar tire specs.... 1/2" fender gap.

 

You have the wrong car though dont you?

With those tire sizes you could go eibach sportline or H&R Super sports wich are both 2' in drops. You wont rub. But you will have to shell out some dough to realign everything.

 

I have h&r springs and 20s, havent had any issues with rubbing.. i have always used eibach springs and loved them so id go with eibach or h&r springs.

 

Guys when you changed your springs did you upgrade your shocks and struts?

 

From the sounds of your mods you Are after, you want handling, like in autocross.
If you are wanting to center the diff, and you have the cash to spend, get a watts link instead. Panhard bars go everywhere as the rear axles cycle up and down the suspension throw.

In straigt line drag racing, panhard bars are okay though. They are actually better because they are much lighter than watts links

 

No autox or track racing for me. Strictly lowering for cosmetics

 

Oh, then a panhard bar will be okay lol

 

The Eibach Pro-kit would work great along with the BMR adjustable panhard bar (PHR006)
