You should not have any issues at all with just H&R springs.

You should be fine. Do you know the offsets? Tire sizes? That would help.

You should be fine with H&R springs, but with the wrong size tires and offset you might rub.

You will have no issues with running H&R Sport Springs with 20" wheels.

offset is unknown as with many aftermarket wheels out there. The rear is 10.5 and the fronts are 9 or 9.5, i would have to check to be sure!

thanks man, looking forward to seeing your ride modded!
I know your going easy with this one, more classy - which you have to in my opinion...with your color combo all you need is a nice set of 20's, a nice drop and some tints and you have a clean classy ride. (and all the little things, painted reflectors and such)!


Loved your E46, it was sick!
