I daily drive, my commute is fairly bumpy in one area (not an issue on my current height but I had to be careful when I was on the smaller wheels). It’s hard for me to justify the cost of coils unless it’s REALLY worth it as I don’t care to mess around with camber. I just want to close the fender gap slightly and retain a similar ride quality

Any recommendations on what I do?
11.5mm. I`m sure it`s 11.5cm 100mm is legal minimum up here. i`m on MCA coils and lowered about 30mm. Sure i still have 110mm+ to the lip. I can check when the sun comes up. I`ll give you the wheel center to wheel arch measurement(355mm F 350mm R measured at the top center)
