Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

What is your final clearance after lowering?

Any problems with rubbing the tire and the fender? I was thinking about 1.5 inches when I decide to lower, but I'm a 260lb guy and worry about rubbing.

Thanks,
Brent

I dropped mine an inch. I am 200 lbs. and my good lady is 170 lbs. Never had any rubbing problems. I used 412's.
