What springs for 30 tall tire?

I’ll soon be pulling the trigger on wheels tires and springs, and I’m looking for the perfect stance. No more than a finger spaced gap but don’t want a slammed look. What lowering springs would you guys recommend for a 20 in rim wrapped in a 30 tall tire to achieve this? Thank you

I put the Phastek springs on my Camaro, 1.5" drop.

I also have wheels and 30 tall tires on order. I was hoping they would come in this week, but it is looking doubtful.

If you don't get any responses or are still unsure I will post pictures once I get my wheels and tires.

Here is a couple of pics of the rear tire on our our shop car with a Nitto 275/40/20 and our lowering springs. This tire is listed as a 29" tire, the ones on our car measure just over 28". Our springs are 3/4" drop in the front and 1" drop in the rear. Let me know if you have any further questions.

So are your springs lower than the phastek springs? Also I mean “30” by the sidewall size not total inches tall from the ground! Lol. I plan on running 305/30/20 and 285/30/20

10-4 I totally misread that as a 30" tall tire. I believe that Phastek springs are 1.5" drop where ours are 3/4" front and 1" rear. the 305/30/20 should be around 27.4" tall and the 285/30/20 around 26.8" tall depending on the brand of tire. Let me know if you have any further questions.
