Can't say that was ever an issue for mine. For me the complaints were no limited slip (Quaife, done) too much squat & dive (H&R springs, done). Now considering brake options.

Wow. That looks absolutely amazing. 17MM rear spring pads? Also, on H&R I'm assuming? And lastly, tire sizes? Those look meatier than most.

Sorry for so many questions but it's just too perfect.

For the fitment gurus in this thread, please inform on my thoughts:

H&R Springs

12MM spacer front
10MM spacer rear

OE Y spoke wheels
245/35/19
275/30/19

Stock Spring pad or go with 17mm?
Rubbing?

Yes u will rub with 275 & 10mm spacers. I used the 17mm pads to raise the rear cuz my HRE are aggressive. The 17mm might help u avoid rubbing a bit, but don't carry passenger in the back seats too often.

Just to be clear, 245 with a 10mm or 12mm spacer front wouldn't be an issue?

Just run the rears without spacers, and 275 will fit all day.

Anyone in this thread seeing performance gains by way of faster lap times at HPDE events, or quarter mile ET or MPH improvements from adding H&R springs?
Obviously the lowering effect is what many seem to desire for a cosmetics improvement, but would love to hear some data showing performance gains of some degree.
