Get your 18s first and then decide...... if you drop it more it might start rubbing against your inner fender. (and that means it will eat the hell out of your tires' sidewall)

Fixable by rolling the fenders, but that costs $$$ too... IMO your drop is fine.

rolling fenders are easy. . .i have a 2" drop with 225 40 18s on the rear. reason for this was bcuz two of my rear tires blew out on the same day. so i hit up a local tire shop and they hooked me up with 2 new tires for 90 bux. it rubbed but then i rolled the fenders and everything seems fine.

the rubber usually occurs on the rear, not front.

don't buy new springs and cut them. that's just a waste.
