trust me on this you wanna get it off 17s on to 15s and drop the suspension at least 60mm. I had mine on 17s and it was forever scrubbing so I did the above and lowered it 80mm and its so much better. Other than that looks really clean a great start for whatever plans you have for it. Oh and the wheel scrubbing will rub through your fuel filler neck as on the more doors it goes through the rear wheel arch.
