I just got the car like a month or two ago and just got the wheels on Friday. It will be lowered but I have to roll and pull the fenders. The front rim is 19x8.5 with ET 32mm and the tire is a 235/35/19. It already rubs a little at this height.

if you mean rubbing on the front plastic wheel liner. it's normal when you go up size to 19". looks good

19's are a bit massive, i only thought of 17's nothing beyond that.

No those plastic covers are already gone. The front rim is 8.5 and the et should be more like 35, the front tire is wide and has a square sidewall. With four people in the car and if i hit a big bump it will rub. If I just lowered it now as is I'm pretty sure the fender would be touching the tire. They are pretty much lined up.

That's quite a bit lower, any degradation in ride quality?

How many inches lower was the kit and did you have to roll your fenders to prevent tire rub?
