Wheels: MRR HR3.
Specs: Fr. 20x8.5 +35, Rr. 20x9.5 +40.
Tires: Fr. 235/35/20, Rr. 245/35/20
As it sits, there is no rubbing at all. In order to go lower,I need to figure out some way to trim away inner corner edges of the rear aspec lip where the 2 screws hold it to the bumper. It was rubbing when I had it lower. Once I get that taken care then I will lower it more.

That Blue!
I Like the newer tail lights!
Not a huge fan of the wheels, but at least you dropped it!![Thumbs Up](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
Type-s rear side markers may set it off even more! You can sometimes find them in the BM of Azine.

Lol that's the only down side to having white wheels
Thank you sir!
Thanks. They are some cheap lugs I founds in ebay called Sick Speed. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone because the color chips away very easily. I plan on getting some NRG or Rays lugs sometime in the future.
