For the front, the driver side wheel already has a bent lip and is warped from NYC potholes. I was wondering about going up to 245/45/19 or 275/40/19 which would give a full inch more sidewall for wheel protection and less wheel gap so it'll look lowered without actually being lowered. Only thing I'm questioning right now is if the extra sidewall will have a noticeable hit on handling and driver feel. I'm very particular on the road feel and choose my tires according to the 'Steering Response' according to Tirerack's surveys.
Increase the diameter of the tires to make the car looks lower.......????
Go for it dude...!! I really want to see your reaction when you see the actual effect...!!!!!!
