I am thinking of putting spacers on my car to make the wheels flush with the fenders. I run a machine shop so I can machine the spacers custom to make the wheels perfectly flush with the fenders. Now my question is what springs should I get? I live in Toronto, Canada we get heavy snow here, I wouldn't wanna drop it too much, maybe 1". Right now the tire size on all 4 wheels is 245/30/20, and my tires are slightly rubbing on the front end when I turn the steering wheel approximately 45 degrees. If I drop it 1" will I need to roll the fenders, or will I need to do anything else as well so it doesn't rub.

Cant tell you about rolling, etc... I can say that the F-sport springs ride nice for springs. Nothing is as good as coils though.

i live in t.o and I'm lowered with Tein-S Tech + aftermarket wheels on my IS as my DD, no rub what so ever

how do Tein-S Tech ride?

Depending on where you are rubbing...lowering could actually get rid of the rubbing.

Did for me. Lowering the vehicle dropped the fender liner point where I previously rubbed- and as a result it isn't level with the outermost part of my tire anymore...which was the point where I was rubbing.

Just gotta watch the top of the wheel well now.

I have 20" rims, but the tire size is slightly bigger than the recommended overall diameter. 245/30/20

i had stechs on before i switched to coils, for me the ride was harsher than stock but not too bad, losing that 4x4 status was def worth the slightly harser ride
