How low can you go???

Does anyone know how low you can drop the Magnum on 22" rims with still using a 265/35/22 tire?? Just wondering since I might be trying out those Eibach Sportlines.....After settling in I think it will be about 2" and I dont know if I will clear those big tires.....

Any input is appreciated!

Thanks!
Danny

The size of the rims are not the concern. If the overal diameter of the tire is no larger than stock, then any of the lowering kits will work.

I know about the overall diameter but when using a 265/35/22 tire it gets tricky...the overall diameter is very close but the tire is much wider than stock and I worry about rubbing with that. I don't want to got to the 255/30/22 because I live in NY and commute to NJ everyday. The potholes out here are craters to anyone else across the country!!!

It also depends on what tire I use...the Hancook Ventus is more square than a pirelli tire so thats an issue...
