Default Lowering and 20's

I plan on putting the Axis GT-R 20's on my 07 GT/CS and am wondering what would be the best lowering option. I'm sure there have been posts on this topic but I couldn't find any, if there is please referencethe thread. They will be 20X8.5 & 20X10 with 255/35/20 & 295/30/20. I want a lower stance but am a little worried about rubbing also would like to have the front and back sit even not the back higher as is the case at factory height.

I have the axis gtr's on my car and love them, but I went with 255/35/20 on front and 285/30/20 toyo proxes T1R's on the rear. I really believe the toyo T1R's are the way to go. They seem to be soft and the ride is just as good or better than when I had the stock 18's on. I plan on doing the BMR suspension kit or the FRPP package. Not sure which right now. I plan on doing supercharger next before the suspension. Bigger brakes and lowering my car is what will make these wheels look perfect. I love the staggered look though! They look kinda funny with the rear jacked up and small rotors..

I believe BMR (bmrfabrication.com) has 1.25"/1.75" and 1.5"/2" kits.

Exactly what I was looking for the 1.25/1.75 should be perfect.

Thanks!

If you just want to level out the car, get the Roush rear springs. I installed them on mine and now it is very level without lowering the car. There is a bigimprovement in handling around corners and such.
