tirerack help!!

I'm looking at buying a pair of tein s springs and i still have my winter tires on my cars. The tires are a set of Blizzak's and i want to be able to drop the car the 2 inches in front and still have the blizzaks fit. Can you help me out so i don't find out the hard way when i install the springs.

2" is an aggressive drop as it is without using snow tires. Remember that snow tires are molded with a deeper tread and have an aggressive outer shoulder. The overall diameter on snow tires are usually bigger because of these differences. Since you are taking it down that much with that aggressive of a tire, I can't guarantee you'll be ok. If you dropped the car 1-1.5" you would have a better chance of being ok.

We can always sell you one tire to test fit. If it hasnt been driven on, you can return it.
