can I be so bold as to suggest you lower it another 15mm?

What camera are you using?

Thanks - it is a 400D with their 17-55 EFS f2.8 lens - had a 580 exII flash on the cmera body too.
Lenses count for a lot more than the body IMO, so i've spent much more than the body is worth in replacing the two kit lenses

Thanks! Horribly expensive, and the KWv1 (or v2) would have probably been more than enough really... no regrets though

You may be so bold, and I may just do it.
The light in these pics has missed out the vertical panel that runs around the arches, so it looks like the wheel gap is collosal.
In the light of day there's a good sense of symmetry happening with (about) a 2 finger gap front and rear. I like the arches to look like they're defining the wheel and not deeply cupping the rim from above... know what I mean?

Some new wheels are on their way with a more aggressive offset, so lowering further may be on the books to get that looking right

Beautiful example

Awesome photos mate, I may have to swing past for a closer inspection

i just had a play with brightness and the gap doesnt look as big as shown in the original darker pic.

I'm not a fan of slamming, so agree with your thoughts

With the KWs you can afford to play around with height until your heart is content.

BTW, how long does it take to adjust the height?
