Sweet! 225/40 tires?

I thought the fender gap would have been larger.

Any Sedans????

Aftermarket wheels with no drop is a modified car faux pas. Just does not look right. Even a 1 inch drop looks good but is not too drastic.

That's what I would say, for sure. I do see it and it always looks stupid.
Don't do rims till you can do a drop.

Mine looked fine with my 17's on it with no drop. Personally I don't think my car is getting dropped at all.
