Well, when we installed my friends springs (which he bought off eBay), we also changed the struts. I rode in his car a few times before he sold it & the ride wasn't too bad. He had 19's & he also got his fenders professionally rolled because it was scraping his tires. You'll probably gonna have to roll your fenders if you get 19's with a 2 inch drop. Also, he got a camber kit to prevent camber wear, etc.

I'm not quite sure on this, I got 17's on my car & it doesn't rub. Well, when it was dropped, it didn't rub/scrape.

You want 18's instead of 19's now? I'm taking the rolling of the fenders changed your mind huh? After my friend got his fenders rolled, no rubbing after that. His ride did look pretty sick with the 19's......just my input.
