I scrub with my 215/45/17 and my Tein SS. I just got it out of the shop today and was forced to put stockies back on till I can buy some 205/40's. This sux, only my back left was scrubbing. Freakin took a little paint off the fender lip on the inside.

You know I noticed that you are a postwhore. No offense. I got my own TEINs, but I havent installed them yet ok. I want to see how they look because just incase I don't like the lowest drop I might sell it. Whatever you said in your post I already know because I "searched". One more thing, that picture of your car that you keep posting, it doesn't really help because... "IT IS NOT AT ITS LOWEST SETTING".

Remember I'm not starting with you. I'm just letting you know.

Oh dear, thanks for the ever so useful information. You've been most helpful!

I guess I'll go play with my TEINs now.
