you should lower it! Well you should get coilover system with adjustable and make your own adjustment high level that you like!

Yeah I am running 245/35 and 285/30, I want to make sure I don't rub since I have more sidewall...

You know I forgot to check the wheels before I had them put them on.... I do have a question for all of you...

The guys who put my wheels on said that OEM wheels don't have a sensor, somehow or other the car reads the tire pressure? Is
that true? All my cars prior to this, with tire pressure sensors, had sensors in the wheels.
