ok....I think I am going to lower my car another half an inch now to achieve that look. I've been debating it for some time now, guess I going to make the plunge.

ok, when I get a chance to lower my car more, ill let you know. I had to put a spacer in the rear to move it out more. Only a 5mm one. It sits perfect with the fender now. My tires aren't like the normal 275/35/19's though, They are a little more conservative so they are are wide as your nittos or dunlops.

Guys don't get spacers for two reasons. First, spacers put too much stress on the bearings and that could mess up your axel. Second, spacers are really dangerous because they can losen up your lug nuts from your rims. I put spacers once for a day and all the lugs were on tight, the next day most of the lugs were lose. I also had a friend with a truck that had spacers and two of his wheels came off and he crashed his car. So guys just listen, don't put spacers on your car, it's not worth it to mess up your car or get into an accident.

If lower it anymore, my rear bumper will come off. You should see the other wheel tucked in. Oh yeah I have 19x8.5in.on the front and 19x10in. in the rear. So it is possible to tuck with 10in. in the back.
The front is lowered about 2.25-2.5 inches and the rear is lowered to about 3.25-3.5inches.

ok i found a pic, here is some tuck. Although I can really lower my car that much, I do not think I can drive anywhere like that low.

question for you Celisor ... what type of problems do you run into having your car that low and having people sit in the back of the car?
