Default Can/Should I go lower?




I do plan on getting Spacers soon to make the wheels sit more flush. I’m currently on BC racing coil overs.

Definitely, and boy is that lip a little short. But I would personally lower it more.

It broke. I just need to get around to replacing it.

what is she doing? And I think going too low is not worth the hassle.

Sure! Especially since you're rocking factory wheels/tires. I was tucking (front and rear) on the factory 18s for a while on BC Racing coilovers. Only issue was a slight rubbing on hard corners on the front inner wheel liners. Simple fix though.
