Would coilover work with these tight fitment? I have less than 3/8" clearance between my wheel and strut.
I’m not too sure on fitment just yet as I haven’t taken ownership of my pacifica yet but as far as functionality I’d say coilvers over just springs. Even more with your figments questions due to adjusting the Coilover rather than just a set drop. You could always run a thin spacer to allow clearance but I want to say yes, it should clear it

Looking at the megan coilover front strut it would touch my wheel for sure and im not planning to use spacer for i dont wanna make my wheel stick out too much.

You need a wheel with an offset that is more negative than positive.
I think you need to revisit what you mean here.

The guy has a +48 wheel, going to even a negative -1 et would poke the wheels outwards nearly 2 inches.

He doesn't need that much space.

Depending on what changes with the dimensions of suspension hardware itself and the suspension geometry, he might not even need to do anything.

If the suspension lowering creates more negative camber, then aggressive alignment changes or maybe a small (5-10mm) wheel spacer could create enough gap.

Finally done with my set up! 2020 Pacifica LX on
46600
20x10 +48mm offset wrapped with 255/45r20 rubber on RSR lowering springs! Lowered for about 1.25". Rides smooth, handles better! Zero issues at all! Really a tight fitment from the inside of my rear fender liner barely touching the tires! So happy with these set up for my daily family hauler!

Great to hear, looks good.

Assume you got it aligned, do you happen to have the "after" specs

Old post don’t care. Lowered the 18 Pac Touring L yesterday. Megan racing springs from VanKulture. Solid 1” drop and handles so nice. Tires are 245/50/20 and wheels are PR181 20x9 +34. Zero rubbing
