Question for all the lowered G's on 20's

I'm not going to wade through millions of threads by searching, so I thought I would ask directly:

If you are on 20's, max width and have a drop, how much of a drop did you get before you get rubbing on turns and bumps?

I'm debating whether I should get the Sprint Suspension springs. They have a 1.8"/1.8" drop and I'm afraid that will cause more problems than enjoyment.

I currently have 20" x 9.5" rims on my G. Not 100% sure about the width, will have to check, but I just told them to max out the lip.

Lastly, any suggestions for springs are welcome. My goal is to drop it as much as I can without having rub issues.

They are +20 and +25. 20 x 8.5 and 20 x 9.5.

Anyone got a similar setup that's got a good drop without rub?

What size tires? You have skinny wheels, so you should be just fine.

with those offsets you can pretty much dump it without problems

I think anyone putting on 20s and even mildly dropping should roll fenders. Takes the guesswork out of "WILL IT FIT?"

I am running a 285 in the rear with a 1.7in drop and 20 offset and have no rubbing issues.... I don't see why you would have any issues with that set up at all....

i talked to some guy who said they put the same wheels on another coupe and an H&R coil over setup with a 1.7in drop all around w/o any rubs and issues, so that's reassuring.

thanks for all the input people, looks like i'll plan on getting those sprint suspension springs
