The only way to get rid of that wheel gap will be shorter springs. We will have to wait for a sport suspension from Mopar and aftermarket lowering kits. They are coming.
Actually I was not referring to the wheel gap itself. I was referring to the suspension part that sticks out like a sore thumb. It protrudes directly form the lower part of suspension and ends just above the wheel itself. I hope that this clears things up.

This is what has me baffled as to how 50 cent had his 300c lowered. He probably had a shop do some custom work for his ride.

Can anyone take a pic of what I’m taking about and post it for us? Any takers.
