   picked up some 16's dirt cheap, mainly because they had 4 new tyres and its cheaper than replacing my old tyres. but it makes my car look like an off roader its massive! two questions, should i lower my car? and is it simple to remove the lip on the rear wheel arch (is there any threads on this?)

   dont get any rubbing on the front at all, i had more rubbing when i was at standard height
   
   because i got spacers on it for a better stance, if no ones in the back, its doesnt rub at all, but itf some one is then i do get a bit of rubbing, but i hate people in the back and never have anyone there
