Lowering

I just put some 19s on my car, now I want to lower the front and rear. I am using adjustable links in the front and moving the sensor in the rear. On the front their is a bolt with a nut at the top of the tire, I would say about half of inch or less clearance. My question is when it is lowered will the bolt get closer to the tire or stay the same clearance? Thanks

Stays the same, the bolt does not move. Go ahead and lower, Enjoy!

The only time to be concerned with that bolt is with tire flex. Go ahead as it sound you have plenty of room.

Pcs, please.
