Lowering and wheels question
Here's one I couldn't find an answer to. If I lower my vette 1", and go to an 18/19 wheel setup, how much ground clearence am I going to lose? Am I going to lose the full 1", or will the taller wheels keep it around 1/2" ground clearence loss, with a full 1" of body lowering?
Have a great Thanksgiving everyone!

When changing to a larger wheel you should keep the overall tire height as close as possible by going with a lower profile tire. So new wheels should not afect the ride height or wheel gap.
