I have the F-Sport springs and shocks and I have experiences ZERO issues with it making noise over any kind of bumps. The F-Sport is not a very aggressive drop and should not cause any rubbing BUT It is not going to close the gap either.

I am sure you can search and find some pictures of F-Sport drops.

Mikaveli...how low do you want to go? This is a very minimal drop. Road Magnets, H&R, Teins are also popular and are lower in that order.

If your wheels are 'big enough' would the 1" lowering not be sufficient?
