yup, bottom line is as long as you have 20s and you use 245/35 instead of 245/30, and with the exact same lowering when you were with 18s, your car is 1/2" higher from gnd now

Looks pretty good Brent. The lip helps, plus you are lowered a little more than me. I can't bring myself to go lower with the car as a daily, especially if I have the kids (and sometimes wife) in the car. This is where a mild kit helps even more.
