Need some help on springs that will fit my 19s
I have some 255/35/19's up front and 285/35/19s in the back. I was thinking about the Tein S springs. Looking for a better performing spring could care less about "droping the car." The 19's rub a little up front when I take a sharp turn (turning in parking lots). I want to keep these wheels but I don't want to be rubbing all the time.
Thanks
Jon Swift

You could always shim the wheels out a little since you bought the wrong ones.

To save time, maybe think about upgrading to Koni yellows the same time as the springs.
