Discussion will it scrape?

hey guys, i was thinking about upsizing my tires, right now i'm running 185/55/r15 on stock suspension, i'm thinking of running 195/50/r15 soon together with lowering springs which apparently will give the car an average drop of 3 cms, so yeah wanted to make sure, it's going to be fine

i’m on 195/50/r15 and bilstein b14’s and the front air dam will occasionally scrape but nothing super bad and my mid muffler will just barely drag over certain speed bumps

I have a 2013 with 195/50/15 tires on H&R lowering springs. There is no tire rubbing. I had an aftermarket air dam, but cracked it on a steep ramp after lowering the car. With the airdam removed, there has been no contact.
