It's lower with the winter tires on... the fender hides the tread with my 14" rims and winter tires....

Here's the gap with the 17s...



If the question is who has the least wheel gap.... It's not me with this wheel setup, but if the question is who's car is lowest to the ground....



2.25" ground clearance at the front.


EDIT: The white mark on the driveway on the passenger side of my front bumper is fiberglass being scraped off the bottom of the bumper... My driveway is full of white marks like that one...

What kind of suspension are you running? I like that stance.
I have the Sprint springs. They are a 2" drop. (Rims are 16's wrapped in 205/40/16's)

Looks good Marc, although i think if the bumpers were colormatched it would be even better.

Now, about that tint!!

Thanks! Ya, i had insomnia Saturday night, so i made up 2 new sig pics, one for the Pro and one for the Jetta...

I would like to see that pic! So far I think you win, my stock 14" rims didn't tuck, the gap is about the same as with the 16's on there now.

just a side note for your bumper marc, no offense, 30 bucks a can ain't worth it, head to pepboys and look in their spray paint isle and look for their color chart (plastikote makes a color match for your car), they should have an exact match for your green color. it's $3.49 for 6 oz.'s of that ****, as apposed to $30 bucks for 12.5.. just a little smart shopping for you. and if in doubt, talk with dave (cablemirc), he just finished his entire trunk lid and spoiler with that ****...as i've done my body side moldings and my bumpers with it. add some clear coat, it'll look real sweet.
peace

Hey..Thanks, I was hesitant about paying the $30. I hadn't thought to look at pep-boys yet. Tried auto zone, walmart, and oreileys with no luck. The closest pep boys is about 30 min. though. I will just have to make a trip to the city I guess. I've been wanting to do this for a long time.
