I have a 2015 Mustang GT non PP, and I’m planning to get lowering springs installed for better wheel fitment. However, my rear tires are 325/30r19s and I’m wondering if there will be any rubbing or clearance issues if I decide to lower the car. If anyone has info on this let me know, thanks.

Unless you're going super low or the offset of your wheels causes a lot of poke, they should be fine. Although it's wide, a 325/30r19 tire is a little smaller in diameter than stock.

I’ve got 315/30/20 on 11.5” wheels on my car lowered .5” and no rub. I think you will be ok

The wheels are 19x11 with an offset of +56, they’re a bit close to the shock but I don’t know if lowering it about an inch will cause it to rub

I'm not sure if lowering would change the inside clearance, but the outside should be fine with a one inch drop. I knew a guy running 325/30r19 Indy 500 tires on 19x11 +50 wheels, and he had no rubbing with a one inch drop.

That's my current issue on 305/35/20 Nitto 555R2 on SVE350 20x10 Steeda Progressive springs. Message sent to TJ @ Steeda earlier today, waiting for response.

I ran 325/30/19 PS4S this summer with 1" rear drop and absolutely no problems. SVE X500 wheels though with +50mm offset. I love how wide they poke out.
