Those who run the 20x10.5 setup on the front, the people who have PS4S do you have to cut the fender well? I also have eibach front springs and want to do this.

I’ve seen people cut it or get the custom inners ones from IND. With spacers it rubs for sure.

Also, as far as ride quality these springs are outstanding. Nothing will ever feel exactly like stock, but these ride super smooth. Not sure why people are saying the H&R springs bounce ?
Jonathanjpalermo do you have the measurements still? Wanting to mimic the same ride height with adjustable springs. Thank you sir!

Hello, thank you for all the information you are providing.
Do you think that in stock suspension only drop with KW has you could install 12mm spacers in front once updated to 20"?

I had the HAS kit lowered with 12mm spacers. I am running 285-30-20s up front and 295-30-20s rear with 12mm spacers in rear. The rubbing up front is not bad at all. It slightly touches the vent feens which are easy to modify.

Curious. Since you went squared. Why not run the same size tire all around?

Car feels better with the 295s in the rear. Fitment is also much better. It’s also closer to factory spec.

Non-starred in that case?

Isn’t factory spec 285 in back? Or do you mean width ratio compared to fronts?

I want to do 285 all around with 20" rear wheels lowered on KW HAS. That way I can rotate them all 4 corners.

285 20 all the way around here lowered on MPerf HAS. 15mm rear spacers and 12mm in front. Very slight rub in reverse. Need to keep working heat gun or trim outer fins but I like the look and ability to rotate tires.

Do you think 10mm or less at the front would be better?

Does the wheel seem a little off?

thanks for sharing

I don't think reducing by 2mm would help with the rubbing but don't have 10mm to try. What do you mean by wheel seeming a little off?

Google translator..

If it's not too far out, maybe aesthetically better with a 5/6mm spacer?

The rubbing if it is in the wheel arch is not a problem and is normal, an easy solution

How does it look aesthetically compared to the 15mm rear wheel that you have installed?

In the pics the front wheel looks much more out than the rear one... but it could be the pics..

Are you going to leave it like this? or I will try to make some modification to the spacers

thank you!

Probably going to leave alone for now anyways. Here’s a different pic…

Looks amazing! I’m lowered on Mperf HAS (20mm F& 10mm R) as well and am curious to know if your drop is maxed out front and rear? Any noticeable difference in handling (good or bad) with the square set up? This might have to be the next move for me.

Maxed in rear but not front. Not much difference on everyday driving but actually went to the track today and rode 20 square for first part of day and swapped back to 19 in the front. The 20’s handled a little better overall I felt like. If you go this route, you can use the 19” square for a drag setup and 20’s for the road course….I will also say the little extra diameter helps getting on and off trailer as well as driveway curb.
