lowering springs are lowering springs. if you currently have a rubbing issue, then you have choosen the incorrect sized wheel or tire. so lowering is out of the question.

well it really dont rub at all when i am driving or even ifi hit a bump. it really only rubs in the backwhen i am turning kinda sharp.... so you all still think its out of the question to try to lower it orsence i have 18' s the back kinda looks low its just the frount..what would anyone think about just lowering the frount a little to level it out or would you think that it would make the car look werid
