I got 4 of 18X8.5 +44 rims, 225/40R18 Square wheels first.

And the height of my car change a little bit. At least it looks higher. The diameter of my new wheels are about 0.5 inch bigger than my old one(I dont think u can feel any difference). so the car should be a little bit higher(~0.25'').

However, those new wheels also clean the gap under the fender a little bit(~0.25'').

I hav a five axis body kit, so I do not want to drop too much. Otherwise I may dogleg on my driveway everyday. So I plan to drop it by about 1''.

Because of the bigger wheels, the 1'' drop can clean the fender gap as well as a 1.25'' drop (Actually may looks like a 1.4'' drop). And the front bumper wouldn't be a lot lower than stock, but looks much better.
