Please post some pics. Also, what size tires are you using?

I went 275/35 all around but had to use the 3mm spacers in front. It's a hair out from flush or perhaps perfectly flush but the new Conti extreme contact 02 tires have more of a rounded sidewall.

That looks good, thank you for posting a pic. Do you think a wider rear tire like a 295 would work? Are you lowered? Feel free to post more pics.

295 will definitely work. I take my car to the track so I'm getting be wheels- 20 x 10 front and 20x11 rear. I'll have 295/305 setup.

Worth noting though that I swapped out to m8 body panels to get more rubber in.
