It does look low, no? All these pictures were taken when car had oem springs, well since it has sport suspension it is lower then normal car. Currently I changed front springs which made it around 20mm lower and front looks just perfect now, which I can't say about the back, as wide 19" wheels do not allow me to put lowering springs. I do have new rear Eibach sport springs, so I'll probably will ended up with rolling arches a little and swapping the springs. I'll take some pictures, so you can see how it looks at the moment, but as I said I don't like it, as the front is lower now, but rear stayed with old high, so its kind of funny.
As far as track width - new wheels are 8.5 with ET37, so I guess that gives that wider look, and obviously causing my rear wheels to touch the arches When I was looking to buy these CSL wheels the guy told me they are 19x8.5 ET25, and with ET25 I was pretty sure they will fit in the back and will accommodate further drop. But when I got them I realized they are ET37... Another option is to increase negative camber, as I haven't done wheel aliment after I changed the wheels, and looking at them I have a feeling that instead of negative cumber they are with positive. If its the case, increasing cumber might solve my issue, as basically I'm looking for 2-3 mm and they will go under the arches. Lets see...
