Not the ideal setup, but was wondering if anyone has tracked with lowering springs alone?

just wondering if anyone is encountering any rubbing or any other issues. also, do you have upgraded wheels?

thanks

Nothing wrong with tracking the car with just lowering springs. The most important thing to do before any track day is to change your brake fluid to high temp brake fluid such as Castro SRF or Motul 600.

You will not rub unless you run wheels that sticks out too much to the point that rolling the fenders are required.

This. I run Swift Spec-R lowering springs and RBF600 with no issue. I was on 18x9.5 +45 with 265/35/18 tires.
