22s and lowering springs

Andone here with 22s and lowering springs?
I found that just putting the rims on it was tight to the plastic liners in the rear stock.
It will bottom out real bad with lowering springs wont it?
Let me know what you think

Hey Hustler,

Click on the search tab and type in 22" and lowering and you should find bucket loads of info on this topic. Good luck.

We would need to know what wheels you went with and tire sizes.
Does your wheels have the 5-115 bolt pattern and what are the backspacing on the wheels. That might be the problem.

I have USW Forged 22x9.5 on all four wheels running Hankook 265/30/22 tires. I also have the KW V2 suspension system. I do not hit or rub anywhere.

One thing to be careful of is that if you lower it too much with a lowering coil and your turning and hit a bump you can catch the fender with the tire.

Another option is to just go adjustable suspension :-)
