18" Falkens too tall?

[RT3_1350]

After reading thread and inspecting mine I have nearly 1 inch less clearance from the rear tire (295/40/18) up to the fender edge on driver side than the passenger yet the distance from the frame to the garage floor on each side is exactly the same. Figure the fiberglass body mould is not perfectly symmetrical? Anyway wondering if hitting a decent road bump is going to do damage.
How can a person tell if the suspension is cranked up all the way?

Your shock will be at its limit. The KYBs afford more height adjustment if needed.

As I discussed with my friend from St Augustine. I just spent a month trying to find tires for the new 18" wheels I just purchased. After sending back 2 sets of Pirelli tires which were made in 2012 and finding that was the latest production date. (They don't want to tell you that) Jay is correct in that the back offset is wrong on the new wheels but they want admit that in Boca.
The best solution for me was a set of Michelin 315's and 245's. After installing them the ride is excellent and no vibration and not 2 years old either. I don't race the car so I was looking or ride and drive ability. I have the ride height set at 2 fingers clearance front and rear according to Backdraft.
