I was on down springs and with the proper alignment I can attest that I was able to get 24k out of my first set of tires. Unless you are running some seriously aggressive camber, you should be fine. I actualyl have a set of down springs that Ill sell cheap. Ive traded my 3gIS 350 F for an RCF. PM me if interested.

Sorry this may have been answered somewhere in the 15 pages prior, but for a 2014 2IS on dubs 9.5, would down springs rub or should I just stick to some half down springs?

Default RSR Downs and Super Downs

Hey guy I'm new on here. I got a question , alright so I'm having an issue my car is still stock height and K3 Projekts wants to put some wheels on it. The problem is that they are 20x10 all around and I need a decent drop that won't rub or damage the car. Has anyone done that before ?

Not going to lie to you, when It's myself and 3 grown adults in the car, I do get some rubbing in the rear when going a bump, but that rarely happens, I'm in love with the look of the car, I haaaate wheel gap, and these springs did it for me. As for the bumps Miami doesn't have the greatest roads either, just have to see it and slow down a bit, and that's all. I highly recommend them if you want to go the "springs" route.
