Maybe I don't get it. But with 20s you'll have less wheel gap but the actual height of your car I.e ( fender to ground) will be more than you have now. Unless you want to tuck wheels. I'd stick with 19s personally, 19s look the best for the coupe or sedan

Yeah I closed the wheel gap on 19s upfront and couldn't drive. I think my fender heigh at that time was at 23" def wasn't drivable

yeah mine would be the same way....my sides are actually a bit lower than my front also so that makes it even worse....if i lowered it more right now my splitter would not last 1 day

the fact that the nismo splitter sticks out a good 2-3 inches adds a bit more to maneuverability through dips also...

Definty can't be lower than 24 1/16. Has it set at that on the front and 24 1/4 rear and couldnt even drive it in my hood with out scraping the front cross member bar... i wish I had the 6mt RWD sedan so I could be up to par with poke and stretch.. Having the X is definitely a challenge to mod so I'm working with what I got and making the best of it... not too many 1st gen Xs with staggered/flush set ups..

hey norcal has it pretty bad too.

we got bumps so big it completely forced my front bumper on my beater s14 to fall loose. i was too lazy to take it off and put it in the car, so i dragged it 2 miles back home.

love having a beater.
