I can tell you're from the UK by your spelling of tires. Tyres is how they are spelled by Avon Tyre and I believe they are a UK company that has their tires made in Ohio at a Cooper factory.

Anyway, hopefully someone will answer your question.

Depends MOST on the wheel measurments,(offset)and what it is your worried about rubbing on.... the inner fender, or the lip!

Umm... mine's pretty low and I don't have rubbing issues (but I'm running a ton of negative camber)... I'm guessing I'm running about a 2.5" drop in front and 3.5" in back. As long as your wheel offset is right, you should be fine. Or maybe I just got lucky... I'm not really sure
