[QUOTE="Tim Turner, post: 920163, member: 58291"] Sonny, I have the exact same set up that you are looking into. 20" chrome wheels with 275/45/20 tires and I'm lowered about 2.5 inches up front and 3 inches in the back. 1. I did not install wheel spacers, but only have slight rubbing issues when the wheel is locked out. I usually just try to avoid doing so and haven't come across an issue as of yet. 2. Again, I did not install larger rotors or different brakes. I know some will recommend it due to the additional weight, but just give yourself a little more stopping room and you should be fine. Again, no issues. 3. I have read that the Edelbrock shocks for lowered STs are prone to failure. I went with the Rancho RSX (Monroe Reflex equivalent) and they have done the job for me. Let me know if I can be of anymore help. [/QUOTE]
