Anyone have experience with rubbing on steep inclines that were not a problem before lowering..??

Thanks for your honest input.

It's impossible to tell you if you'll have problems as we don't know the grade of the incline. Typically, it's not the grade of the incline but the sudden grade change getting on/off the lot. I'm lowered on Pfadt springs and have to take my driveway at an angle. There's a small drop off at the entrance that can't be taken head on. Good thing is, I can tell when my tire pressure is getting low. Even at the usual angle, the plastic piece that drops down will rub. Air them back up to 36psi cold and no more rubbing.
