Its just apart of the whole VIP scene of styling these cars, that's all. It wont too low where I can't go certain places but it'll have a nice stance to at least be in the game

Looking good.

We took a trip with another couple in the car and following, I discovered where the front had done some fender clearance mods. Given the conservative wheels offset, I was pretty surprised.
You guys riding even lower with more aggressive wheel fitments...

Looking at your first pic of the stock wheels, were those originally chrome or the machine finish?
