yea, but a lowered sav/suv with no fender gap just looks silly..

So are you telling me you wouldn't drive this if you got one?




Back on topic, I'm not saying I want to completely eliminate the fender gap. I just want to lower the vehicle, not slam it. I have my X5 dropped on Eibach Pro-Kit springs (roughly 1.3 all around) and it rides and looks great. Still has wheel gap, but a lot less than what it had with the stock suspension. I'm just trying to do the same for my mom's X3 since I plan on getting some wheels for it since the stock ones just don't cut it.

BTW, here is a pic of my X5.
