Maximum Drop with 18" Rims - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #50570 2 posts Started by k-weaver
Hey guys I was thinking about lowering my car because with my rims it sits REALLY high. I currently have 18" motegi racing rims, they are 7.5" with a 42mm offset i believe. My tires are negotiater capitals and are 225/40/18. I just wanted to know how low can the car go without rubbing?

I was thinking of getting the Tien S-Tech springs, would i also need to replace the shocks as well?
if you do springs its always a great idea to do shocks, since most the time they are old OEM spec pieces and not designed for the shorter shock travel

on 18" rims i was lowered ~2.5+" on coilovers
