This has probably been covered in another post but, I lowered my car with coilovers. What do you think is a good size for rims? I dont want a ugly gap in between the wheel well and the tire.

the gap will be the same no matter what size rims you put on. when you increase wheel size you also change the tire size to compensate other wise the speedo will be off. if you don't want a gap then you need to lower it more or just get whatever size and know you speedo is off

when you change rim side you can get the appropiate tire size to keep you speedo close to perfect, but the bigger the rim the smaller the sidewall, which makes the the ride harsher...check peoples sigs and stuff and see ...or you can look through the members rides
