Lowered with factory 16 inchers??

Well- bought my T/A and it had brand new falkens on it so I am going to drive it through the summer with the 16"s. Eventually plan on going 17" or 18" but now the stock chrome wheels will do for the summer. I want to get rid of the ugly gap and lower it a bit. Would the sportlines or pro kit be better. Or any other suggestions??? Maybe some pics of anyone that has lowered their T/A with the 16's on it. thanks

I lowered my Camaro just about a week before putting my new wheels on it with an Eibach Pro-Kit. It had the stock 16" Salad Shooters - and although it didn't look bad - it didn't look great.

It's too much of a job to do and just see if you like it and if not then go back...I would probably hold off - unless you just really want it lowered now - it isn't gonna look that terrible.

Something about the gap being filled with tire just isn't flattering.

I agree, I lowered mine and although was excited about the look, never really liked the 16's on it, so I recently purchased 17" SS 10 spokes and cant wait to get them in!

I love the way mine looks lowered, Ive got Chrome 16inch zr1 replicas. I would like a bigger wheel but this is what I can afford, Im just happy the gap is gone.
