I think the height is good right now for daily drive. I am just safe to go over speed bumps and due to the spec of my rear wheel, it is rubbing a little the inner fender when driving on bad roads. Thanks for the opinion.

Front: 245/40/18 - 18"x8.5" +38 (front is semi-concave)
Rear: 275/35/18 - 18"x9.5" +38 (rear is concave)

Looks great, Those specs are deceiving, I would have thought the wheels were a lower offset.

The reason is to have the concave rear and semi front. I don't track so it is pure looks.

I love them.
