If your rears are flush with the top of your fenders now............dropping an inch will cause rubbing with the camber adjusted back out yes???? Perhaps the travel of the wheel will make things clear. I have 18" sport classics and 23mm spacers

I suppose if you wanted to go all out, I'd go Bilstein PSS9/10, but I think after reading alot of posts on this site, it's overkill.
I am a landscaper and only marginally mechanically inclined , but I put on a M030 ROW kit on my 98 last year myself. Not really that much of a problem. If you search, there are write-ups on the procedure which are very good. By the way, I paid less than 1 grand last year fron Sunset. I don't know if it was a sale or normal pricing. Ed

I was not sure if this was directed at me.

My rear tires are not flush they go under the fenders. The fenders edge is below the rear tire.
I am not sure of the offset but the rear tires are 265/40/17. The fender measures approx 25in from top of arch to ground both front and rear.

I was talking about myself........I was asking as my rear edges are exactly flush now and was curious suspension travel on bump would allow the rears to clear with one inch drop......hard I know. I will try and post a picture. I think it would be very close
