What springs will work with the wheel setup I want?

[Cheetah30]

Hello everyone! I am looking at getting a set of lowering springs for my car but I do not want to rub. Currently I want to buy 16x8 Dekagrams with a 205 50 R16 Firehawk Indy 500 but I want to avoid rubbing. Any advice for springs that I can go lower without rubbing? Thanks!

Rubbing largely depends on the offset of your wheels. www.willtheyfit.com

The 16x8 Dekagrams are ET40, +5mm poke over stock. A 20/50x16 is somewhere near .5" taller than the stock 205/40x17. You'd be ok with a slight drop. As far as naming springs that will work I can't help you.

If they are ET40 then I calculate 20mm more poke outwards (12.5 mm in wheel width plus 7.5mm in offset), 56.6mm higher, and 78mm more circumference, so a 7% speedo error. Use the calculator at the website I linked. They will likely rub on the front at stock height.
