    20" wheels but stock height (pic request)

    hello,

    Does anyone happen to have a picture of the R8 with 20" wheels but stock height?

    I plan to throw on 20" HRE P40's or ADV 7.1's but im debating if i want to lower the car (i'd prefer to keep the stock height, unless it really does look that bad).

    Thanks in advance,

    Sean

    I wish I had some photos of my car when it was being test fitted for the ADVs just prior to the H&Rs going on, but I do think it needs to be lowered if you're going with 20" wheels. Although I can't recommend lowering your car, not knowing where you drive mostly, but I will say that with my set up, I have yet to scrape the front lip on any driveway or speed bump.

    On a side note, I think the ADV 7.1s would look great!

    NVRL8R8,

    Your car looks awesome... Do you happen to have any other pictures from other angles? I assume with the aftermarket 20's... the fender gap is about the same as with the 19's?

    Thanks!

    Correct. Fender gap is the same because of the tire profile decreasing in size. I'll look for some other pics and post them up soon.
