Ya it does look off there. But the drop lowers the front a bit more so they should even out.

after the drop the gaps is more evened out...but your 15's may make it seem bigger in the pic.

Edit: currently i'm on the same 15's setup and dropped, i don't rub, you WILL NEVER rub with stocks, unless you lower it wrong!

You won't rub, but you might bottom out on those nice lob-sided pot holes and the sheets of metal layed down to cover the semi-repaired areas..........daym Massachusetts city streets...........

exactly!!!

always higher up front also to absorb the initial impact of speed bumps, potholes, etc better...

true but for performance, a lower front end (which makes the car looks flush) will give better steering response and help to reduce some understeer by tucking the nose in first. I know with mine, thats how it feels. Comfort wise, stick to having what looks to be a larger gap up front, the car is more even that way.
