Ive just changed my 265/30/20's for 255/30/20's as i was running 5mm spacers on et 29 and was getting a little rubbing. My question is, how low have you guys gone with this set up? i was surprised at how much more gap there is now with the new tyres.

Maybe if I invite pics of the height I'll get more response as I know you're all picture whores...

This is the optimal height for still getting over south London/surrey speed humps without catching anything under the car:

I have no spacers but ET26 so sticks out 2mm less than you with your spacers.

R5CCU, Faisal and Mike, you could have cleaned the cars first.
Absolute filth!

Thanks guys for the pics, after looking at mine on the flat and walking away from it, then back to it sometimes crouching, sometimes standing I think it's about where it should be. The neighbours probably think I'm a little odd, but what's new. I'm thinking 8mm spacers instead of the 5mm will close the gap a little more and I'll be happy..

You joke - but mine wasn't clean in that pic, had a layer of dust on it as it'd been a week since the last clean!

Looks pretty perfect in that picture to me mate. The 20's really set it off. I love black optics and titanium wheels, but that looks great with silver wheels and trim.
