Personally, I love a car that's low and has massive wide tires on it. But as soon as you're so low, so wide, or so "flush" that the handling starts to suffer, you're wasting your time and money. So, like Kevin said, if you're trying to go low (both height and offset) just for looks and ruin the handling of the car, might as well save your money and get Rotas and some cheap/shitty tires. No point in nice, light wheels if you can't really drive on them.
Agreed. thats why i put a little flair on my fenders so i can have a decent size tire/wheel and still not need to run 27 degrees of chamber
