I think it looks perfect the way it is....its kinda hard to tell in the pics but i can barely fit 2 fingers in between the fender and tires......i am kinda hesistant to drop my car cuz i had an Audi A4 which i lowered. It looked great sittin 1.3" lower and it drove amazingly crappy . I would hit a bump in the road and it would feel like I smacked a curb at 50 Mph!

Its all about personal preference. When you said you can barely fit two fingers between the tire and fender it made me laugh. I have less than a finger in the front and I love it. But to each his own. Oh yea, and I dont drive an escalade. And its more like 1 to 2 inch gap, not cm's.
