Of course I should mention that since we're all on 20's this method is kind of an "assumed shorthand". It wouldn't be as easy to apply it across different diameter wheels.

Yes, tire height would make a difference, that is part of my point.
From what I read many of those asking what to do want to achieve a look are referencing another X5 pictured in a post. Even if they are not, the goal is almost always how to lower the vehicle and fill the wheel wells.
If there is any variation between rim size or tire size how low the vehicle is or how much the tires fill the wheel wells will differ. Don't know about anyone else but I am always surprised how big a difference a small change appears.
That said, I can't think of a lowering option that either the drop is not stated or the method is not adjustable so my point is meaningless in the end, just thought if was worth mentioning. |
