HELP: Can I go lower?

[Sydeways]

I just bought some Tein springs from a fellow member and I was wondering if anyone ran them with 18"s? My car already rubs a little when I turn while reversing, so will it be much worse lowered 1.3"? Thanks :D

18's are good on an s-14 just don't go much bigger.

I rolled mine with a Louisville Slugger.

A fender roller (Or pole/baseball bat, etc) and a Big Fucking Hammer, is all you need to solve nearly any wheel rubbing issue. If your tires rub in reverse. Jack up the car, and beat the hell out of any spot you see with paint worn off. You should do that a couple times and you'll have no rubbing issues.

What kind of shocks will you be running??

No matter how much you roll/beat there is a good chance that just running lowering springs it will still rub unless you have adjustable shocks. It's just not gonna be as stiff as coilovers, therefore body roll = rub rub rub. Just food for thought.
