Well after seeing these wheels in the flesh at my local tyre joint, i fell more in love with them and im deciding to put these bad boys onto my au. I'm going to get 19" because well its either 19 or 20".
How low will i be able to go without rolling the guards? Oh yea sorry bluprnt_xr8 for copying ya wheels but they are simply awesome in the flesh   |

I'd like to be able to get mine this low
 , though it wouldn't be legal :( If you want to go as low as you can now , then measure the lowest point on your car to the ground ( probably the exhaust ), 100mm / 10cm is the minimum legal clearance, you can lower as much mm as you have above 100mm. But also remeber too that shocks and springs sag after a while too , so the car will drop a bit lower after time. You'll be pushing it to get it down to the legal minimum anyway with 19" wheels / without rolling the guards .

Get your own wheels god dam it! Nah, just kidding, should look cool on a sedan and in 19's, best thing to do is get the wheels on first and just tell whoever is lowering the car what you are after. I did that with the ute when I took to Pedders and they did a top job especially once the rear was lowered, plus if the offset is rite you shouldn't have a problem as I rolled my guards just for the hell of it and was told I didn't have to
