No problems at all, the only problem is it might still be too high ;) Haha, just kidding, it will sit nicely.

i have ap coilovers on my streetpack zs and ive wound them down so the arches are just on top of the tyre and i get no problems at all on speedbumps or full lock.i have also fitted 15mm eibach wheel spacers so the wheels sit flush with the arches looks much better
