Tire Clearence on a del sol
I have a del sol. I just put new 16" rims with 205/40/16 tires. the car is lowered and i have about a finger of wheel clearence from my fenders. my question is how much is safe to drive. or what do you have on your lowered car? thanks

Re: Tire Clearence on a del sol (delsol8694)
I have the same size wheel/tire size on my del sol. I have coilovers and the fronts are almost bottomed out (tucking half the tire) and the rears are about even with the bottom of the fender. The front has a good degree of camber to it but I had the toe set (after going through tires like crazy) and now there is NO uneven wear. I live in western MA where there are mad potholes and such. I have never bottomed out and I only scrape going into my driveway. You will have to learn how to avoid potholes and stuff if you lower a car. Hope this helps.
