'03TL Basic Lowering/Tire & Wheel Q's

I am curious what the best way to go is for my '03 TL.
I want to lower it. Just a basic, non-agressive lowering job, not too much.
How much should I go?
I have 18" Wheels.
What tire size should I go with?
And how much offset does my '03 TL call for?
I am going to go with a very simple, not agressive at all lowering job as well. I'm not racing this thing at all.
I do not want any rubbing at all.
Any help greatly appreciated.

H&R OE sport drop. The TL comes with a +55 offset. Offset really depends on the rim with. I personally wouldnt go lower than +45 and any thing 8.5 or higher in width is too wide

Do a search for more info!

Tire width also depends on the rim width. Both Eibachs are pretty aggressive drops, particularly the sportline!

Go with the H&R OE, or the H&R Sport maybe...
