Default Will this be alright?

I am ordering some H&R Sport Springs tonight and sometime next week I should hopefully be ordering my deep dish bullitts. I am going to run this tire size on the deep dish wheel, 315/35/17. I believe stangsuspension.com says the springs lower the front 1.6" and the rear 1.5". Will this tire size and drop work together? Will the tires rub or anything like that? I think I should be fine but lets hear what you think.

I dunno. My friend has the H&Rs and says his dropped 2 inches. It looks like a 2" drop to me, too.

Sounds good jdaniel... And 04Blue there are dif. H&R springs that lower the car different rates. I am getting the midrange springs that lower the car about 1.5" all around. I believe the next one up lowers the car 2". I could be wrong though. Anyone else have experience with the H&R's? I have been told I will be ok with stock shocks/struts and cc plates from people who have the same springs.

Sorry, not familiar with H&R at all. I have the DZ 2" drop springs as it says below, but I'm wary of them. 2" is a lot for this car. I'm considering selling and going FRPP or Steeda. No decision on that just yet.
