Suggestions on wheel and tire size CV3's
So I'm in the market for Vossen CV3's and can't decide between the 19's or 20's. Also I wanted to go 295 in the rear but I think there might be rubbing issues? And last but not least any suggestions on best and easiest way to lower the car about an inch to sit flush? Any suggestions and opinions will help please.
Thanks,
Jesh

19's or 20's is based on preference. Some like more tread, and some love the look of skinner tires. I have 20's but personally I would have gotten 19's for the comfort. Either way you go, 295 series tires won't be an issues if lowered. The best price for H&R's is tirerack.com.

cv3's
thanks for all the responses guys!! So I've decided on 295 20's. I would love to have 305 on the rear but with my type of driving I know I'd run into an issue somewhere. Ordering the wheels next week, probably won't go on till January but I will have pics soon as its done.

Hello Jesh, here is a link to a thread of a customer of ours who just purchased the H&R springs from us and our link kit. I hope this helps with a visual. He is running same size tires you most likely will. The white car in the thread we started was posted by another gentleman who also has the H&R's but this is not a car we did. In any event, it also shows another example of this setup. H&R says the springs drop 3/4" so you decide if the drop is to your liking. If you feel that it is not enough, then the only other option is the KW kit which is a coilover setup. I hope this helps. Also, we are one of Vossen's oldest dealers so we can make you a package deal
