According to the virtual comparison on rimsntires.com, the overall diameter is actually .8" taller than stock. So it reduces the gap about .4" and lifts the car the same amount. Handling is maybe a little more floaty-feeling (maybe due to the taller sidewall), which is fine since I don't plan on doing any drifting or road course racing in the near future. Still drives straight and corners reasonably well.
