what do you mean drop 2 tires sizes? i have a 215/35 on a 9...so do you think i can run a 215/25 or 215/30.
please help me fix my problem =)
Naw man, you dont want to run anymore stretch unless you want to not enjoy a second of driving that thing. Maybe that small of tire can be pulled off on a honda, but not save for a heavy *** sedan.

stock ISx50 is 225/40/18 giving it a circumference of 78.8in, your new tire size is 215/35/20 has a circumference of 81.4, almost 2in over sized, so that might be the problem in your wheel well clearance when lowerd. the perfect size circumference wise to stock size is a 215/30/20 but probably that size dosent even exist, so the next best size would be a 225/30/20 with some availability on tires. search tire calculator on google for further understanding.

No you can keep it at a 35 series. Try like a 195/35/19 (if they make that size) or even a 205/35/19
Also different tires run smaller then others. Federals and Nankangs are two that come to mind. Try running a 205/35 in one of those two brands and you should have enough clearance to drop the front lowers and not rub.
I gotta dig up some more full shots. Right now it's on Road Magnet springs. 1.75" drop front and rear. I'll be switching to HKS Hyper Maxs once it gets a lil warmer.

LOL dont believe that. If it is true, did you heat the springs or cut them? Or is it that the Wald kit that you have just hangs really low?

Yup....beleive it.... Just like my Road Magnet springs, we have prototypes which were built lower than the production units. That's why my 2IS sits lower than the production springs that other owners have.

Dead *** serious. Road Magnet is a local manufacturer and sponsor of mine in MD. The springs they manufacture for the 1IS come with a 1.75" or 1.25" drop. I can't remember the spring rate though. No heating or cutting at all, thats for Honda owners.
Yeah and the Wald kit hangs low. But all of the shots minus the last one are with my C-West kit.
