Wheels looks good abby but going -2 in the back (295/30/19 when you should have gone 295/40/19) will be a harsher ride and while lighter doesnt looks good as its the size of a porsche 911 tire (which is a way smaller car 93 inch wheelbase versus 111ich ? for the cam) the wheel well looks empty and lowering the car wont solve this problem....
Car looks like a giant skateboard! With correct offset and right size tires you will still achieve weight loss |

I agree with the wheel wells looking empty even with lowering the car. How do you find the ride on the low profile tires?
I find looking at the picture of the rear of the car, the tire does stick out significantly and will sling road debris onto the body. The 285/40-19 tire would probably be the better choice because it would help fill in the wheel well ,tuck the rear tire closer inside the fender and give you a less harsh ride. You are very enthusiastic about your ride from what I read. Keep up the enthusiasm good luck with the choices you make. |

Thanks guys for your thoughts. I am going to switch to a 285/40-19 tire, and will probably eventually change the wheels as well. For now, I'm changing out the tires. The ride isn't harsh but I do feel more of the road than with the stock set up.

Did it ever get lowered? I wanted to see how much of a difference it made. I was thinking even if you lowerer it you will still have to much space just for the simple fact they are not 20's. I'm not talking about the space on top of the wheel but more of the space in the middle (front and back) of wheel. Lowering can't hide that.
