No I'm 8.5 +23. Natural +38 with a 15mm spacer. Are you sure you aren't +20?

apparantly I cannot add. I am sure I am +10. Started at +20 and added a 10mm spacer. I will be going down .25" up front and the rear will stay put.

Here is a pic of front fitment w/ my phone sitting against my fender

Rear fitment as well:

That's a better picture of your front. My wheel sits perfectly flush with the fender and you have some poke. Makes sense now.

You think that's weird?

Looks at tire sizes.

225/35/18

225 is MM
35 is a %
18 is inches lol

No wonder people are so confused with tires all the time, it's like learning a new form of measurement.

Also, why do the states refer to their cars as 3.5L, why not 213s or a .92 Gal

United states are the only people still using the imperial system, why haven't you guys figured out how much it sucks? lol

18s are smaller and thus will get the car lower.

If you are asking what will "look" lower based on the fender compared to the tire/wheel then 19s (or 20s) for sure. In order to tuck a significant amount of tire on 18s you'd practically have to put your car on the ground. 19s are the perfect balance because you can slam it, tuck tire, and bumper will be closer to the ground (compared to 20s).

I'm tempted to change out to a bigger spacer in the front but then I'd need to do the same in the rear which would necessitate a smaller tire in the rear which I don't want to do.

After being initially skeptical of the chrome I fall in love with my rims more and more each day.
