I'm currently running 275F and 305's R on 19"s. Getting rid of the stock 4x4 ride height and looking to drop the car 2" all around by running run steedas ultralite lowersprings and their pro adjustable shocks and struts. What spacer size should I run to keep the wheels nice and flush to avoid rubbing?

Depends on your wheel offsets.

Why not spec the wheels with the right offset rather than planning to use spacers?

A typical 10" F/11" R setup is ET35/ET50. So you are already lower than that. So I would recommend none. You could probably run a bit of spacer up front if you run a lot of camber. Track rats often run ET25 to get (short) 305's to clear the front strut. But note that Ford felt it necessary to add fender extensions on the Mach1 handling pack to run a similar setup.

2” drop? Do that first and then measure.

2" drop!! Yikes..I just dropped an inch and I rub on everything. You gave us the offsets, whats the width of the wheels? If they are 10" and 11" that would work, however the rear may poke out to much. I think for the front they would be spot on. I run a 10"ET 35 front and a 11" ET 50 and the front could definitely work with the 32mm front, in fact I am considering a 3-5mm spacer for the front on my setup.
