new wheels and drop space
Well I just got my new wheels installed and there is maybe an inch between the strut and the wheel. They are 18" 7.5 wide. I have an Eibach kit that is going in Monday with new struts but with a 1" drop it looks like there will not be enough space for the install. Has anyone done this or have any advice for me? It seems like there must be people with a drop that have 18" wheels.

Any advice would be great.

I have 18" Eagle 077's and Intrax Springs w/ new KYB struts...I got almost 2" of lowering after they settled and I still have about and 1" of wheel gap.

Hey...what tires do you have on the wheels? They wouldn't happen to be Falken GR-B 451's would they?
