thanks guys. I can still turn to full lock without rubbing since i removed the fender liner screws, i just wanted to make sure it was expected behavior for the fender to be so close to the tire. I def don't want to jack up my fender so slow goes it

Marcus, are your front fenders pulled or just pinched flat?

Exactly what Marcus said. ^^ he is pinched flat and flared a little im sure.. I also can turn full lock fine but a slight dip goodbye fender! ! When I get in my driveway my tire is all over my fenders.. just be carefully and aware at all times.. **** happens. When you see cars with stickers on the front fenders its because the fender got hit lol.

Need everyone's opinion on my drop. I can drop the rear another 1/2 inch and the front another 1/4 inch If i drop the rear will it look like it's sagging? Here is where i am at now Front fender @ 24.5 inches rear fender @ 25 inches

My front fenders are pinched flat and pulled from rubbing.

Even before I modified my Tanabe to sit up 3/4" higher, I never scraped the muffler (the y-pipe yes, every time I drive LOL). As long as he isn't going into a crazy steep driveway or huge speed bump he'll be ok.

at max drop i would be 24 1/4 front and 24 1/2 rear (possibly a bit more if i remove a collar).

my specs are
19x9 +21 front with 225/40
19x10 +37 rear (soon to be +27 or +22) with 255/35

Once my rear tires need replacing i was considering moving the 225's out back and going 205's in the front, but for now i want to be as flush as i can with my current tires
