Thanks for the input quick16 and blackstevo8. Seems like I won't have any clearance issues. Took pics of the wheels/tires and clearance this morning. the pics I took last night didn't come out good. (Man I wish I had my Sony USB cable).

I meant to say sorry. (can't speal well either)

As for my spelling, grammar, and comprehension skills, I attribute that to the completion of middle school.

Clearance problems are attributed not only to the specs of the tires, but mostly to the wheel offsets. The posters above saying they have perfect fitment of 20's on Tein Basic's does not guarantee yours will fit. If you supplied the offset information, we would be able to tell you if your planned combo would fit.

Finally. Thanks for some help vodkarocket.
Ur still a smart a**. Just because you have some "knowledge" doesn't give you the right to act like a *****.
1) I'm on a suspension forum. If I was interested in running circles around your car I would look on a circle forum.
2) If you asked me a question that pertained to network engineering (which I do for a living) I would be happy to help. Even if you gave me information I wasn't looking for. Why? Cause I realize not every1 is as smart as you.
3) Good come back.
Don't worry vodkarocket I'll have dreams of you, Barney, and I drifting together. Barney will be in the back seat. You and I up front. We'll drift until the sun sets on 20" wheels. I'll enter a corner gracefully; pull the e-brake, and loose traction. My tires will grip; I'll overcorrect, and hit a tree. Barney is sad now. Very purple and sad.
Honestly thanks for the input......
I'll admit I didn't give you the information you asked for at first.
I'll supply the wheel offsets information later tonight.
That will make Barney smile again.

Front Clearance
Rear Clearance
Rear Sway Bars
My sway bars are actually Stillen, previously I stated they were Eibach.
I would like to drop the car .9" in the rear and 1.5" in the front.
vodkarocket im not sure if any numbers below represent my offset. i typed directly off my invoice:
20x8.5 Stern ST-2 5x114.3 + 20 Black
20x9.5 Stern ST-2 5x114.3 + 25 Black

Front coil overs were as low as they can go, then we raised it 1/2".
Rear coil overs are as low as they can go, but not without rolling the fenders.
When I put on the sway bars I had a lot more oversteer while cornering hard. The negative camber after the drop def fixes the oversteer issue.
Let see how long my new tires last.

On the highway or well-engineered streets you only realize the benefits of the Tein basic setup. You won't even notice you have them installed until you barrel into right hand turn at 40mph. (which is a good thing)
Tein basic coil-overs are perfect if you want better handling/looks and bearable ride quality. Get em, the ladies will thank you.
