Question for BBS LM (18 x 8.5 et 30) owners - What is your ride height (more)
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/16459/dsc00051.jpg"></center><p>I had the wheels on my car with stock suspension and had no rubbing issues. However, I'll be installing custom coilovers with 600/700 spring rates and would like to know the optimal ride height (ground to center of fender, e.g., 25.5 inches)that will not require fender rolling. Tires are 225/40 Toyo T1S.
TIA.
TIA.

18" should be ok, I don't think you have to roll your fenders unless the car is really slammed.

Careful! I ended up not getting them due to rubbing issues with H&R streets
I didn't want to roll my fenders. and put spacers on.
It's my fave wheel, but just not "properly" fitted for the S4.

You won't rub at maximum height on H&R street coilovers (m)
you could probably go as low as 26" with H&Rs. I'm hoping to be able to go as low as 25.5 with higher spring rates.
