I was just wonderind what people went with when they lowered their gxp,s .i see some with 1.7 and 2.5 was wondering if there was any tire rub thanks

i got 1.7'' all the around on 255's on the 4 corners and no rubbing...i know one guy that has 275's up front with a 2.0 drop i believe

For those people who dont understand tire size... not me... bigger number smaller tire height?

So for instance, on the front of my gxp, I have 275/40/18

275 being the width (the higher this is, the wider the tire)
40 being the sideway height (the lower this is, the smaller the sidewall)
18 being the wheel size

ya, yer kinda right I guess, 275 is the width in mm but the 40-35 etc is the percentage of the width in mm. So a 245/45/18 for instance means that the width is 245mm the sidewall is 45% of 245mm and of course 18 is the wheel.

can we get some side profile pics of the cars as well, if you guys have some. i can find gt/gtp pics of them lowered but not seeing a lot of GXP pics. i definitely want to lower the car this summer but dont liek the look of the sag. i was thinking maybe 2" up front and 1.7" in the rear, or a 1.7" front and 1.5" rear, if it were possible with a spring only swap.
