i have 17" rims on my car and the body shop said i could not lower my car unless i wanted to decrease my turn radius. they said this is because of the rims & tires i have. is this true? i was wanting to lower it the 1.4&1.3" kit.

What size are your tires?
New Toyota project coming soon...
i depends on the tire and wheel hieght and witdh .. but with 17s you shouldn't have problem ..

If you've correctly adjusted the size of your tires down as your wheel size went up, larger wheels shouldn't matter (e.g. 185/65R14 is the same 23.5" diametre as 205/40R17). Wider tires, on the other hand, can be a problem.
225 is the max I've seen run with a drop on the fronts -- most people I know use 215 on even 18s.
i have 17's on my car and its lowered 1.5inch's and its fine
look at my pic, theyre smaller tires. its the same height as stock. guess that answered my question.

you might just have to roll the fenders..
you should be absolutly fine, exept you may want a new shop.
isn't rolling fenders what you do to fit bigger tires.
i have 17's as well with no rubbing or decreased turn radius and its dropped more than 1.5 for sure... youll be fine
dont worry at all...even if u have big ass tires or something crazy it cant be that bad we already have pretty damn good radius
17's will be no problem as long as you have the proper offset.
