Default Borderline fit, very tight clearance on the front...

Use caution and test fit. There is very little space between the front tire and front suspension. I've had some say it fits, and others report rubbing.

Lowering should not change things too much in this case since the part that the tire normally hits on would not change much by lowering the body of the vehicle with lowering springs. I'm not 100% sure on this though...
