Exclamation Going lower on H&R springs

Going to lower my V6 camaro on H&R springs with camaro SS struts 1.8" in the front and 1.7" in the rear my question is would I need smaller tires? currently I am running:
2017 ss wheels
front tires : 245/40/20
rear tires: 275/40/20

I am a bit worried since it is a BIG drop and currently my car sits a bit lower in the rear because of my sound system weight.

just wondering if anyone is currently running a similar set up that could give me some more info.

Those springs are way too soft and way too low. Then you're adding extra weight too, you'll be blowing shocks often.
