1" lower and larger wheels and tires.

I am looking to get the BMR springs 1" kit and was looking for views of people that may have them with larger wheels and tires. I have the Factory Rep. zl1 style wheels in 10"F and 11"R 275's on the front and 315's rear, and want to make sure I am not going to have clearance issues while driving. Please chime in as to your set up and any issues you may or may not have.
Thanks, Rob

I'm running 22's on mine. No rubbing or issues what so ever. I'm lowered 1" all four corners with DSE.

No worries. I can't even begin to tell you how many customers we have with lowered cars and 22s.

What about doing a 1.4 rear drop and a 1" front drop? I have seen bmr does it the other way but I do not want to enhance the rake already in this car. If I did I would just get in a time machine and hurry back to the 80's! LOL Right now I have 1 3/4 gap in the front and a 2 1/4" inch in the rear. So I think if I went to 1.4 in the rear and 1" front I would have essentially the same gap front to rear. But would my car look like it was higher in the front even though the gaps were the same?
