Hey fellow members,

i would like to know what springs i can use to get a nice drop but not have to worry about rubbing and cutting.

Please help

try it out, i'm not sure if you will have to roll your fenders, but that's kinda usual. i think even if you rolled them a little it would be better than not at all.

Tire size and wheel offsets matter too

I would also add that you should consider spring rate as well...it depends on what kind of ride you are going for. Some like soft some like stiff. Just do as much research before hand so that you get what you want on the first try.
