Default what do you think my car will look like with 16's....

here are pix dropped on stock 15's with H&R springs. I want to drop it a bit more but im already scrapping to much. its a 1.75 drop in the fron and 1.5 in the back.
Im just wondering if 16's will closen up the fender gap.

i think it would look fine with 16's depending on the type of rim. Also....is that an intercooler I see behind that bumper

stay with 15's...if you got 16's you have to get thinner sidewalls so the overall tire/wheel diameter would be the same anyways...gsr blades

shoulda gone with coilovers if u wanted to adjust...

you can go with 16 and instead of getting a 45 profile tire, you would get a 50 profile tire, this will decrease ur acceleration slightly, and raise ur gearing, and also make ur speedo off by about 3%, it would read slower than actual speed, but it would fill out ur fender gap a bit more....

ahhh your pics are making me miss my drop...I had the same drop for 3months then the parentals forced me to take em off....ugh i want them back...but back to your topic...16s should be fine...but i don't know if they'll eliminate gap due to lower series tires...or you could get the same series tires that you have now, that may work.....
