Hi all

Just trade-in my car with cu2 facelift lux nav.

Need to do some like mods to the car.

So far has put modulo kit, ducktail spoiler, mugen style sunvisor, red emblem and tail light.

Next is coilover and wheel.
Have ordered bc br coil (some good and bad review) unfortunately the one that available from australia and ard AU $1300 is this brand.
tein street flex (AU $1250 SHIPPED) is my choice but no stock atm, have to wait till nov (way too long)

i have a set off 20x8.5 +38 (all round) yokohama wald wheels (mahora m11c)

My question for the wheel is
will they have a flush look on the car? Or need a spacer
As we can see the factory 18" rear wheel is sit deep inside

For lowering the car..
i've been told by my mechanic to lower it with the gap of 1 index finger all round or max 1 thumb gap.

Will it look nice with that low..or should i go a bit lower say half index finger gap? Not crazy low though..still prefer a gap between guard and tyre..

And i dont want to roll guard or something like that..

Pls give me some input as i will have it done sometimes next week.

I did google it but most of them are from tsx, they all look very nice but most of them are too low for me.

If you have the car or a friend with 20 inch, can you post the pic here so i can get the idea how it will look like..

Btw i am from sydney.

Thanks
