To make the wheel gap smaller requires one of two alternatives: Lower the car, OR put in tires or tires/wheels that effectively increase the OVERALL diameter of the tire. Of course, that 2nd choice would mean bad things: for each 1/2 inch you closed the gap, you'd also be raising your car that same 1/2 inch. And you'd be throwing off your speedometer and having an effect like changing your gearing. So either go lower (for a purely cosmetic reason?) IF you can afford it, or get to like the existing gap if you can't afford to go lower. I figure the money I'm saving by NOT going to fancy 17" wheels and new 17" tires will allow me to get a set of headers installed instead, and more HP will make my stock gap look just right.

Oops. There is a third alternaive, but it stinks too. Get heavy passengers and put 500 lbs in your trunk. You'll go slower and eat more gas. But your wheel gap will go shrink.
