How much of a drop do you suggest? I definitely don't want to rub
couldn't tell ya...i have about a 1 finger gap...and only rubs when i hit hard dips...you miight be safe with a 2 finger gap w/ rolled fenders...and might be good to get adjustable coilovers. so u can play around with the height

I am around, just haven't been driving the s2k. I am finally getting started on working on the car. It has been sitting forever and it doesn't help that I have another project car that I am working on. Man when I sold my civic, I told myself I wouldn't modify the s2k. Oh well!

As for Jetspeed, we will be there. I don't think I'll be showing though.

JsAp1 gets another for all his help. Thanks!

well i've had toyo's, falkens, pilots and potenza's on these rims on 245 and they've all rubbed so far. u can try and 235...but thats gonna looks weird from the rear i think...245 looks too thin to me IMO.

and chris I'm not even sure how hard you run you car on twisties cause i've never seen you come out to a twisty drive so maybe its different? Going straight and hitting dips is a lot different from make turns and hitting a dip.

I have been through a few here that were pretty much very easy to slice through.
