(couldn't find the lower it emote), lower that baby !

i got the same rims in diff offsets (19 x 8.5 +30 all around) and i've only experienced rub on road bumps, and uphill/downhill turning. and im still planning on getting 15 mm spacers in the rear so it sticks out jus slightly. but with that in mind, i will prolly most def have to roll it on the top.

and this is alrdy with it lowered 1.6/1.2 on tanabe nf210.
