Looks good, if you're rubbing on the fenders I'd suggest modding/shaving the fenders to see if that eliminates it before you raise it up!

the wheels are MRR GT1s 20x8.5 front and 20x10 rear 20mm frt and 25 mm rear I think on the offsets with Nexxen (i think) 235/30 frt and 245/75 rear tires. I really didnt think I would like the chrome wheels but after putting them on I love them.

I would like to keep it at this height but I can not handle the poor ride quality..I may not have the coil overs adjusted right, but i dont know much about them

VERY NICE! I almost went with those wheels in 19's. I think you height looks perfect right where it is. Im hoping my springs will settle to the same front height yours is at now.
