Just wanting to know how low would you be able to drop a G3 Spyder 01 GT with a set of 17's, without any rubbing or what not? Thank You

You can drop it an inch, but just one. No more, or you will be scraping on every little bump

put your new rims on first, then see what your dealing with. see if you even want to lower it after you get the rims. if it looks good with the rims alone i woulndn't lower. think about the curbs adn speed bumps. :57:
