Lowering Springs

I have stock wheels with 245 45 zr16 potenza tires. I was wondering if i get Racing Beat springs, i believe they lower the front .75 and rear 1.25 will that affect the tires.

They are wider then stock, so i don't know how is it gonna be on the front if i lower it?

Anybody know anything about it ?

Thanks

All i want to know is if i'll be able to turn the wheels without rubing them on something from the inside.

You'll be fine, I run 255/40-17 Yokohama AVS I's on 9 x 17 SSR IA2s, 45-mm offset all the way around with no problems. I've squeezed 275/40-17 Hoosier R3S03s on 9.5 x 17 SSR Comps, 42-mm offsets with no rubbing problems up front (wheel turned full right or full left). I have H&R Sport springs all around with stock shocks (Showa "R1"), and Eibach Comp sway bars fr/rr.
