Default How much can I lower my Monte without the tires rubbing?

Hey guys looking for some advice. Just picked up a 86 ss and I want to lower it with lowering springs. I was looking at the 2 inch kits than saw a 3 inch kit. Is 3 inches to much? Is it going to cause me issues with the tires rubbing?

Depends on what size tires your putting on car, 2 inch drop is probably average for 20 inch tires. Anything bigger than that your probably gonna have some rubbing issues.
