whats the point of a forum if you cant ask these question to people that may potentially help you without them being some type of smartass I don't have the car yet im picking it up tonight and im trying to order them as we speak all I asked was a simple suggestion id measure it but it kinda hard when the car is at the dealership. would of taken less effort to simply say what size would be best instead of taking time to post a picture to tell me to measure the car and be sarcastic.

Google is your friend OP.


What's the point of asking questions that already have been answered MULTIPLE times?


Why's the point of giving you the answer when we can teach out to figure it out on your own ? "Teach a man to fish "

I don't think he was being a smart ass at all. Does it hurt to wait for the car first before you start buying shit for it?

If you don't have the car yet, then why not just wait? The difference between 15mm F / 20mm R and 20mm F / 25mm R is so small, it comes down to personal preference. That's less than 1/5 of an inch difference. Wait until you get the car, then take a ruler/measuring tape to see what looks best to you.

What you like and consider flush might not be flush enough for the next person.

For example, maybe this is the "flush" look you're going after:



The next person might want this "flush" look:



And the next person might be looking for this "flush" look:

Each one is about 5mm different from the other.

So to answer your question about what is "the best option to be flush", there's no such thing. That's like asking who makes the best tasting pizza? Or, what's the best vacation spot? Or, what's the best city to live in?
