^^That problem is being fixed hopefully by this weekend. I ordered 195/40 tires so that will give me some room to lower it again. Then I'll install my rear camber kit and Should be able to sit lower.

It's not always about how low...its all about the wheel fitment.

I was a little unsure about the car after I put the new wheels on I did not like they way my stance was, but they flow oh so much better with the kit than the meshies did. After rolling on them this weekend I love them. Just little things to get everything back to perfect (IMO)

i think you need some spacers, as it's not poking enough since you're probably not in the market for wider wheels. But I do like the wheels

Ah damn you!! lol I just bought some of those and had them imported. They are 15 inch though

I thought I would be the only one to have those on a fit lol. But they look hot. I wonder what my 15 inch ones will look like. I have literally never seen another set in the US in 15" so it should be interesting. Yours look good for sure though.

Its both. Anyone can be low with high offset wheels. Or low with big wheels.
No low with low offset, wide, and big wheels or low offset and wide wheels. That makes a car.
