so is it safe to say that half downs are the best way to go for 19's (with good offset) and not have not have any issues w/ rubbing or modding fenders?

I am going to try this with my awd FSport,even tho they are for rwd. Might get a touch more drop due to the extra weight. I have 19" Vossen CVT's with +32(front) and +42(rear). I also agree this the best setup if you have 19" and don't live in CA of any southern state where the roads are smooth

Looks nice! Can you take some more pics? What are your tire specs?

Thanks

neoogeoo - It looks like the 19" wheels filled out your wheel wells more as the gap looks less noticeable. Did the car settle further, are the wheels/tires slightly bigger than stock, or is it just because they are more flush to the fender the gap looks less noticeable?

they are a bit larger and they fill in the gap nicely, the springs have been on for a couple of months they have settled.........

You ended up with Downs, but did you ever try the Halfs?
