H&R spring question for those with 305/30/19 in the rear

[Ekin95]

Question. Those lowered on H&R springs and 305/30/19 in the rear. What is your gap from top of tire to fender? I swear mine is not correct. I should not be able to fit 2 fingers in the gap. Others look way different. I have 265/35 in front and the drop is perfect. Thinking about adding more negative camber. I hate the Pirelli tire I have, the profile comes past the rim which in turn comes out barely beyond the rear fender and it makes me nuts. Maybe more negative camber will bring in it in a bit. Thanks for any help everyone.

The 305 30 tire has a smaller circumference than the factory 275 35. by about a half an inch, or so. If you went up to a 305 35 tire that should get rid of some of the gap.

I’d have to agree it’s the 30 series tires. Mine still had some gap on 305/30

I was a bit lower

Looks about right— the unfortunate part of the badass raked stance the H&R springs provide…

My fronts are near-perfect for what it is. I attached a picture of my wheel gap in the rear (18x11 +34 wrapped in 275/40/18 PSS) as a reference.

G*d Dam, that thing looks good!

Is there any rubbing with H&R on a 305/35/19 tire in the rear?

Thx for the replies everyone. I actually went ahead and ordered HKS adjustable springs and am heading a new route. I drove up on a small board with the rear tire simulating lowering the car more and it tucks the top of the tire nicely so I know for a fact the new adjustable springs will do the trick. Also speaking to some other owners with the same tire specs and spring combo I know I can achieve what I want. I just wish I would have done it in the first place.
