Default i dunno but ive got 19's on my car

and im scared to lower my car because my rim/tires clear the strut just barely in the front! i can hardly stick a finger in between the gap.

sucks because i really want to lower my car with h&r's but im afraid my struts will scrape against the tires. i guess thats unless i have spacers or something.

Default Not sure about that offset but I do have some rub, due to the spacers

I have 19's with H&R sport springs and Bilstein HD shocks, offset of 35 for the rims.. 15mm spacers in front and 25mm in the rear

Sounds like you need some spacers if its that close on the inside. What are your offsets?

Default I did this and it put me 1mm outside fenders in front and flush w/ 5mm on rear

Does that actually have any reference to rubbing? 8.5 wide so I wouldn't think so but I don't know...

Default rims are 19x8.5 with a 35mm offset

plus, i put some 235/35 series tires on there and it doesn't look wide enough. maybe its the brand im using though.
