Lowering it makes all the difference. And btw love those wheels. Might be next on my list in a custom colour. Its every hard to say if you will rub. You may slightly rub but if your just cover the top of the tread you may be safe.

Yeah I will just be careful and take it easy. I don't want to go super low. Well thanks for the help, sorry for the vague question! And on the note of the wheels, i highly recommend swapping out the stock tires, they really suck compared to the Falkens I'm running, lol. Much quieter as far as road noise goes and I can corner wayyyy faster without the tires screeching haha

Oh and another thing i forgot to mention, are you having any contact between your tires and fender liner with your car at that height? Because i know some people just remove them so rubbing the liners isnt an issue riding slammed

I am not, I still have my liners. I think it looks hideous without the liners

Ahh nice choice with ARK! My friend who lives a couple of towns over came over with one the other day. Sounds soooo nice. Definitely worth the price.

Ark is a high quality exhaust I have the grip version myself but that was just personal preference for volume wise, but they Definitely both have an amazing tone
