OMG..........well i was walking to my car............and i finally noticed that bolt above the front tire.........i saw a thread about it but i can't remember what it was about.......i have 22's on and i want to lower it...........nothing to drastic........just enough to close that gap in the wheel well............but what about the bolt?.........thank guys for the help........
yeah that bolt only needs to be messed with if your going up to 24's...the wheel and bolt both move up and down together so dropping it is no problem...
Once you lower you car the bolt is going to be right above the tire if you feel uncomfortable with it you can shave it. But like everyone else said it wont hit the tire since the bolt moves with the suspension!

Probably was the post I showed pictures of my bolt. My problem was in reverse something would catch on the wheel somewhere, so is why I went to 20's. The bolt did scare me though.
All you have to do is be able to fit a piece of paper between the tire, and the bolt. If you can do that, your fine, and as stated before, the distance between the bolt and the tire wont' change if you lower it.
