Bellato Donating Members 2,713 Member For: 13y 11m 1d Posted 28/09/12 07:24 AM Share Posted 28/09/12 07:24 AM I would still lower but the bigger diameter allows you to not have to worry about scraping as much. I think I got like 20-30mm extra rolling diameter from 19's to 20's, so lifted the car about 10-15mm off the ground and shoved 10-15mm more tyre under the guards,Expect to lift the car even more if starting from stock 17's.As for rim choice theres a million options, choosing wheels with the right fitment is often the hard part Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
