Rims are way too big in my opinion. Looks ghettoe'd out.

What color is that by the way? Did you respray the whole car?

Looks nice to me.
I think the height is fine. If you go any lower, you would have more problems.
Does your rims rub at all?
Also, is your interior Beige?
I'm looking into painting my car and want silver but my interior is beige and I thought the color might clash as I've only seen silver cars with black or grey interiors.

I don't get how big rims are ghetto... When most rims on premium cars are big. I have never seen a bentley on 15's.

yes my interior is beige looks ok to me , and the rims dont rub at all... I think it looks great on 20's but some people dont like big wheels . Where I live anything less than 20's you get laughed at.

I forgot to ask you about painting your car.
Did you use Flex additive for the lower cladding?
If so, did you have to spray the top and bottom separately or can you just put it in and spray the entire car?

I'm just looking into painting my car myself and wasn't sure about this.

Thanks

no flex just prep it real good and it should be fine , the cladding is a hard plastic and really doesnt flex that much, flex is used more for like a polyurethene body kit which bends really easy.
