Typically when you go to a bigger rim, you go to a tire with a shorter sidewall to keep the overall diameter the same.....so unless you're planning to put a 20" rim on and tall sidewall tires, you will not accomplish anything.


Personally, if you're wanting to get rid of some of the gap and keep the ride quality nice, I recommend something like the Steeda Sport Springs. They drop the car 1" up front & 1 1/4" in the rear. It's not an aggressive drop, but will lessen the gap you currently have you'll still have a very nice ride.

As far as an adjustable pan-hard bar, your rear end will shift alittle, but with the Steeda Sport Springs and the stock wheels and tires on your car, you'll never notice. However, if you go lower and change to a "wider" aftermarket rim & tire out back, you'll need to get one.

Good Luck!
