It all depends on the wheel specs (width and offset) and tire size to prevent rubbing with a greater drop.

You will need to get the offset to know for sure.

I'm on 19's and I'm lower than S-Tech.

245/35/19 with 40mm offset. It does rub once in a while when I'm turning.

What are you trying to make? A scraper?

The offset will make a big difference. I have 19x8.5" wheels with an offset of 38mm and 245/35/19 tires all around. I have also installed 15mm spacers at the rear and 5mm spacers up front. My suspension consists of Illumina struts and S_tech springs. I have no rubbing issues.

Wow, that's amazing...how do you NOT have rubbing in the back? Did you recenter your beam? I put 15mm spacers on my rears and I rubbed on one side when turning sharply with a full tank of gas.

I will recenter my beam in the spring.

I did not recenter the beam. I think my rear Stillen strut and sway bar help keep the car level when making sharp turns as well as a slightly stiffer setting on my Illuminas.
