Got a pretty much stock 04. I want to try and close some of the gap between tire and fender. Only catch is I've got about 1" of clearance pulling into my driveway. What is the best way to reduce this gap? How much would 18" wheels close this gap?

Not enough. Welcome to my world I hit the front end pulling into my driveway every time. The price u pay till you got enough to fix the d/way lol
18's will not close the gap much because you just have less side wall vs the 17" rim. H&R racing springs seem to be popular
18 wont do anything! bigger wheel, less tire sidewall. it will make it look worse. Lower it with H&R race, stock ISO's, and fix the driveway.
Taller sidewalls.
This. Get some lowering springs, coil-overs or something. I actually check driveways before getting a house, as silly as that sounds.
Thanx for the input! Maybe we should try and do a group buy on getting our flipping driveways fixed.
Park your car in reverse in your driveway, sometimes it will be better that way, sometimes it will be worse, try it!
:lol: good idea :beer:
Eibach sport springs. No isos. Car is slammed and the worst driveway possible. Wouldn't trade the stance for anything
Also check your driveway for any change in slope from left to right at the street/sidewalk area. With my driveway if you come in at an angle from the right side so can clear it. From the left side, no. My son-in-law has a Z06 and we discovered this. Now he doesn't have to park on the street when he visits.
