    Default Stupid lowering question VT

    Hey guys ive got a 99 VT sedan with VE ssv wheels on it, there 18x8's i have 235/45(or 50 from memory)r18's on the front and 245/45r18's on the back. its currently at stock ride height, i would like to lower it about 2 inches in the front and 3 inches in the back but im worried my rear tyres in particular are going to fowl the guards, has anyone had this experience? and what height king springs would i want to go, low' in the front and super lows in the rear?


    thanks

    Chris
