why is your wheelgap smaller then mine ?

does 17s make the wheelgap smaller?

well, just for the record it's like 2 1/2 fingers (although in the picture it's 2, it's kinda hard to do "half a finger") and in the back I didn't check ... i'm not really sure why mine is smaller, my shocks aren't brand new, i've had em for about 15,000 miles more than the springs (that just went on about 300 miles ago), but I don't see a reason why that would make the car lower ... when I first put the wheels on to see how they looked when it was stock height the wheel gap was larger as opposed to stock "sawblade" rims ... so i have no idea why, maybe just it a coupla days and it'll get a little lower

it was pretty low as soon as it came off the lift, it was so low we had to jack the right side up to get the lift arm out (but thats because the ground was a little uneven, but still) it was 2.5 as of thursday, so thats like 6 days after they were installed. I didn't think to put my fingers in there right after it came off the lift
