Default AP2 V1 wheels on AP1

Hey guys I want to get some AP2 V1 wheels for my AP1. Will the AP1 ride any different or sit higher and have a bigger wheel gap? Im worried ill have to change out my suspension to get them to look right. Anyone got pics of them on a stock AP1? Thanks

Here are pics of my car on stock suspension with AP2 V1 wheels. For what its worth it looks like the same gap as the AP1's I had.

Just go into Tirerack.com and look up the diameter for the ap1 tires and the ap2 tires.

It will all be good, just put OEM tire sizes:
front 215/45/17
rear 245/40/17
It'll look and feel great!

I used to have AP2 V1s on my AP1 with the stock suspension, and I still regret selling those. (which is why I went & picked up some V2s yesterday )


The wheel gap will not look any different on the AP1, however, the bigger wheel face does seem to fit the wheel well better. The only difference you'll notice is that the ride is a little stiffer due to the decreased size of the side walls. It's nothing too harsh, but it isn't like the supple luxury-car ride you get with the stock AP1 wheels.
