Any issues w/15mm rear spacers on lowered car?
I recently installed H&R spacers (7mm front, 15mm rear) on my M030 C2 w/18" sport design wheels, and have a question with regard to lowering the suspension ~1.25in with the spacers installed. I am looking at going to H&R sport springs, but I am concerned about clearance between the fender lip and tire in the rear; the spacers bring the tire/wheel flush with the outside of the rear fender lip.
Should I be concerned, or will there still be enough clearance? Any help would be appreciated. Also, I am not debating whether spacers are good or bad...

My '99 came with H&R sport springs and spacers. it drives fine. But It's a stiff ride and the spacers push the wheels out far enough its hard to gauge where a curb is. yup, have some curb rash now on the wheels. Did I mention it's a stiff ride? But the seller was so sold on the looks of the lowered springs and spacers. I bought into it too. Seems more like a looks issue than a performance issue. I am thinking of removing the spacers and putting the stock springs back too. I have 18" wheels and don't have any clearance issues.
