I'm running the same rubber with coilovers with about the same drop dialled in as the KYB's. I'll check my wheel offset when i get home. I don't have any scrub issues at all.

It also depends on the damping and spring rates too.

i'm running on pedders low's which is the same drop as kings, and with the same offset and same size tyres as you, and have plenty of clearence.. even with a full load of adults no scrubing as of yet.

Awesome mate thanks....

so what would say if you rears were dropped another 20 mm??? as per the Super lows?

well KYB shocks are stiffer then standered shocks, (i'm still on standered shock atm), so i don't think you should have any problems.

i'm only on lows and i have heaps of room so another 20mm would sit nicely and still have room. i wish i got super lows at the back now too.

i remember SB telling me that he had super lows in his old sportivo and he only ever had it scrap once, and that was with a full load taking a corner at high speeds.

give it a try and if it dose scrap then get the gards rolled out. ;)
