I had my winter tires on 225/40/18 and 245/40/18 with the same height as in the first picture, I didn't had any problems accept when fully loaded and going over high traffic bumps.

But with 235/35/19 tires and the spacers and lowering, it will hit the bumper tab a little bit when driving some harder on bumps. Without spacers would not hit the tab and with 225 tires it should be safe

OR just increase the height a little bit (or modify the bumper tab :P )

I am planning to lower the rear like the first pic lol, because the stance on the first pic is really nice!!

First picture is 1 finger gap
second picture is 1.5 fingergap

The dealer told me that that is the right hight adjustment for the suspention.

I had 2cm gap between fender and tire on the first picture.

What is your setup?

Wheel/tire size and specs?

You should not have any probs as you have 225 tires, mine are still rubbing in that little corner, thats due to the 225 tires, so I just going to try 5mm spacer instead of 10mm.

I will let you know

So, what is the effective offset after the spacer? How bad is the rubbing?
