HOiYA

I recently ordered a set of wheels and when the wheels were spec'd out, I told the shop that I will be planning on installing a lowering module on my Cayenne. So I installed the wheels earlier this week and feel the wheels could be pushed out a little further so it is flush.

This leads me to my question, how does lowering the car affect the space from the wheel to the inner fender (flushness)? I assume it's suppose to reduce it? I've tried wrapping my head around this, but can't seem to understand how that would work. Is it just a visual trick or is there something more to it?

TIA.

If you feel the wheels could be more flush with the fenderline, then the offset of the wheels you bought should have been lower, the wheel wider (or both), or a spacer needs to be added to what you have. Lowering will reduce the gap from the top of the tire to the top of the fender well by the amount of distance the spring (or module) lists.

A combination of the lowering module, and probably spacers, is the answer to what it sounds like you are looking for. Call me if I can help further
