Unhappy Fitment

Is it just me or do you have to really be low to fill wheel gap on this car? :/

I'm not talking about slammed/stance but just more of a flush track look.

Maybe easier with a 19 or 20 inch wheel? or wheel wells look huge, any input?

Check out the wheels section and suspension section and think Swift.

On 19's with a 1 inch drop up front and no drop on rear, its looks way better then stock, and you don't scrape to much.

How do you figure that? Wheel diameter would definitely change your wheel gap.

Your hub is a constant distance from the wheel arch so any wheel/tire combo that increases or decreases overall diameter should have an effect on wheel gap.

I know for a fact that, with all things equal, when I stepped down from 19in to 18in rims my wheel gap increased. Yes, I feel ridiculously low and I started scraping in places I didn't before.
