well i just installed my coilovers today and put the perches at the bottom of the collar for the maximum drop,and my 225/35/19 tires are 26.9 inches overall which is a couple inches bigger than what you said and they dont rub on mine. the only rubbing i got was when i first lowered my car back in 98'.it was lowered 1.5 on the stock 16s and rubbed out some holes in the front fenderwell plastic,but not anymore. http://www.geocities.com/blue2gnt
