Well, since you mentioned that you were changing tire size, with smaller side walls than you are going to have even more wheel gap. If you want to go with a mild drop with the Tein or Eibach springs, I would stay with stock tire size.

Here is a pic of my Z on Tein springs, stock tire size. As you can see, its a mild drop.
