Dropped on STechs?

Dropped on 20's (245/35 275/30) Z-STechs and not happy w/ rear drop still over an 1"gap(actually about 1.2"). ? is I want to go w/ the basics but the max rear drop probabally won't do much more for the gap,so I'm thinking of going w/ eibach sportline.anybody here w/ this set up on 20's and do you think I will rub and have to roll fenders? here are some b4/after drop pics.
4X4 in effect stock I know !!

STOCK













DROP

give it 2-4 weeks. the springs will settle.

if you are still not happy, go with tanabe df210 springs. forget eibachs.

Your rear gap is more than normal also because your rear tires are shorter than stock by ~1", and actually shorter than for front tires by a little bit. Should have gone with 275/35/19

i don't think 275/35/19 would go very well with 20s

Good call, I totally missed that they were 20's. In that case, a springmount mod is in order!

how would g s techs help?

pro-kit offers a -1.1" / -1.0 drop

g s techs offer a -1.2"/-0.9" drop

=================================

either do a spring mount mod as redlude said, or go with basic coilovers, or df210 springs.

basics offer a -1.6"~-3.7"/0"~-1.4" drop

df210 springs offer a -1.7"/-1.3" drop

the cheapest route would be to do the spring mount mod, though...
