Ya, same here....the car was SLAMMED when I was on my stockers. Once I put the new wheels on, it raised the car up quite a bit. Now I'm thinking of getting coilovers to dump it agian. The rear wheel is 19x11 +23. Any suggestions on how to make it look better? Lower more and add a small spacer?

Lower it more and add 15mm spacer at least.

5mm or 10mm spacer and a very very minimal drop would look amazing!

P.S. How do you like the Sessentas? What size you running?

Thanks! I'll be getting some coilovers soon and then I'll lower it some more. And I'm thinking a 10mm spacer should make it pretty flush. I'll see about that after I lower it

I've only taken 1 hard turn with them so far, but they stuck to the ground really well. Traction is amazing. Much better traction than my old Dunlops and they're very smooth!! No road noise at all either. I got 245/35/19 up front and 275/35/19 in the rear

I think your sizing is perfect. To get the perfect look, go lower and more negative camber. Those two together will have your riding looking 100% clean and flush.

^ Yes, it will give the illusion of a smaller wheel because the face is 19" on a step lip'd wheel.

Do it!
