i got a 2003 accord ex v6 sedan. im getting some 19"nichevenice wheels with 225/35/19 tires. how low would i be able to drop my car and still be in a safe zone as far as rubbing the tire on the fender or struts?

that depends on a few things, such as how stiff your springs are and the offset of your rims.... but I'd say you can go 2 inches on most quality products without to much of a problem... your biggest rub risk is when you are cornering hard

Hi Member:
Your choice of Wheel and Tire pick is of the right size and should fit as long as your cars springs, struts and suspension parts are all in good shape.
Check them for fit before you do the whole package thng:
