Wheel gap
I'm sure this has been covered a few times but I can't get a definitive answer. I own a 2018 2SS rag top and looking to eliminate the wheel gap. I keep reading post about the Eibch & BMR Lowering Springs. I'm not sure what size to go with. I'm presently running stock rims and rubber. I definitely don't want to rub the fenders off from the inside nor slice into the tires. All recommendations would REALLY help me out and maybe a few pics. THANK YOU..!

In my case, my Camaro did not have MRC. I went with the Chevrolet Accessories Lowering Suspension Upgrade System for the Camaro convertible. Lowers the car slightly, about 20mm on average I think, and stiffens up the ride a bit. I am satisfied with the overall result. I am running stock wheels and tires at this time.

I have the BMR lowering springs and I like how they've changed the look of my car. There was also a noticeable improvement in the suspension responsiveness during turn in, but I think you'll get that with any lowering spring setup. I'm running stock wheel/tire sizes and have no issues with rubbing. I went with BMR because they were not as aggressive of a drop as other brands and because they are made in the USA.

I will be going with Eibach. I want the more aggressive lower stance. I will be adding the MMR 1le rims to my SS at the same time. I have some concerns with the rubbing too. I guess Ill just have to cross that bridge when it comes.
