Author Topic: 17/9 Cobras six 5.0 ¯ Member # 3153 posted                                 I have a 88 GT w/17-9, 4-lug Cobras w/245/45s. This is probabally a stupid but... Since I installed 2" lowering springs, the front rims rub like HELL on the top of my fender. Is their any way can have it this low & avoid rolling my fenders. -------------------- IwishIwasan03COBRA!

I have eibach sportlines (2" lowering) and his cars just as low if not lower, without rolling fenders and no rubbing issues -------------------- *'87 Coupe '89 Coupe-SOLD Posts: 2131 | From: Bay Area(925) | Registered: Mar 2003  |  : JBeezy53 CAFords OG Member # 3960 posted                              I don't think so with a 2" drop. I have the same front tire with steeda springs (1 1/2") and they don't rub up top. -------------------- 89 Gt 98 Cobra 88 Notch 05 GSXR 750 Blk/Yel Posts: 1782 | From: Sacramento, Ca | Registered: Jan 2004  |  :
