I got 19" Vertini Fairlady rims 9.5" width

Now since the car is still on stock springs there is a good 1.5" space
I wanna drop the car a little, but also get stiffer springs so the fender wont rub if I hit a bump.

Is this possible? Are there any other options other than rolling the fender?

Also any care to explain how stance riders angle their wheels so the fender doesn't rub?

P.S - Reason why I got spacers was because I installed custom CEIKA brakes and the rear calipers are much bigger than the stock ones and the spoke of my rims would rub up against the caliper when I tried to mount the wheel on the car, the 15mm spacers give a decent gap now.

Thanks!

what is the offset of the vertini wheels?

Generally lowering springs are stiffer (higher spring rate) than stock.

From what I've seen on our model MB, there really isn't much to roll fender wise. It would be more of a "pull" to gain clearance.

The angle you are referring to is by way of adjusting camber angle to more negative that what it sits at currently.

Might want to try smaller spacers to start. May be the cheapest option. Unless 15mm is the bare minimum spacer you needed to get caliper clearance.

Or you could stretch a smaller width tire on your wheels. Any photos you could share?

smaller spacer is your best option as phenom3030 said but also some strech and poke will work. For the drop and you want a camber kit isn't necessary, and roll and pull isn't very easy with our cars so your best option would just be a smaller spacer.

I run 13mm spacers on the rear and have no rubbing and 12 mm on the front

Yah so I guess just smaller spacers then.

The car is very close to being complete. I put in a lot of work. So ill make a new thread with pics sometime this week.

Think I might leave it how it is. I wont be driving often with people in the back.

Thanks for the help tho. If it becomes a bigger issue, I will defs get smaller spacers
