The car was lowered with the wheel on top of the wood... I ended up not milling it at all.

im planning to go lower next summer so no, the 235 has just the right strech i wanted. Thants just me tho, im sure you could do 245 or 255 tho. But the whole spacer/adapter thing is a mess due to the offset already being pretty decent itself. This is reliable with a small drop. Only better pic i have

Im shocked that more people havent tried m5 wheels. Way more concave and even more aggressive sizing. Still the cars in this thread look great.
