offset is too low, car is too high and tires are too narrow

Offset is perfect?!? Going any wider tire means you have to roll the rears...

How is it too low? He want's an aggressive look without rolling fenders. 245's look fine and once he's dropped it'll look better.

Don't forget to black out your front emblem. Plasti-Dip matches the matte plastic on the bumper.

Weird, you look like you're running more poke than I am with the same exact wheel specs. Wrapped mine in 265/35/18's too.

What alignment specs will you run after lowering? Even with the stretched tires you miiiight have some very minor rubbing in the rear. Run -2 camber up front and -1.0 to -1.5 in the rear.

Way ahead of you.
Picked up a can for the OEM center caps so I can throw them onto the RPFs. I haven't totally decided on the front emblem or not, but I'm probably going to do that also.

Haven't decided on that yet.
