Ummmm no don't lower it...there 20's why would he lower them?if anything he's going to have tolift the car up at least two more inches and even after making it rise,that whole gap should be filled..

If it were me I'd put lowering springs on for the stiffness, not the lowering. Would you want to put a 20" rim into your fender?

the appearances basically...the rims will stand out a lil more you know...and don't lower it...also the disbenefits can be your rims can get scratched easier when cornering a turn,if you hit a pothole at full speed,you're more likely to bend the rims so yeah i got low pro's...i'm going to go lower right now i got 235/40 18 i'm going to drop them down to 225 40 18
