Even With The A/C

With all of that, I still don't rub (other than the usual freeway dip rubs). I've also had camping gear with two other people who weigh about 110 each. Just the usual rubbing again. When my dad was still alive, I had his wheel chair and some bags in the trunk, and a total weight of about ~580 lbs of passenger weight, and no rubbing (was on the stock 15" steelies at this time).

Thanks! Geez, your HALF my weight. And I'm just 6'1" with a 37" waist but I was into bodybuilding for a while. My crew of four equal over 900lbs in the Yaris.

I would definitely not go more than a 2" drop. I'm still debating whether to go 16 or 17". The pro's and con's seem to equal out and it's driving me nuts trying to decide.

But anyway, sorry to take your thread on a tangent.
