If you have a I30/35 or maxima with 19's dropped with Tein S-Techs please let me know how it looks and if you have rub issues. Thanks!

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.
