Smaller Tire OD - 205/40/R16

[rcfanatic]

I have some Enkei Zokus, 16x7 ET40 that I'm going to run with 20mm spacers. When I bought them they already had 205/40/R16's on them, which leaves the OD at 22.5". The tires still have decent tread so I want to run them. Aside from changing my speedometer readings and lowering my top speed, are there any other issues with running this smaller combination?


Thanks,
Adam

Lots of fender gap and looking dumb?

Hah, yeah exactly - I'm not looking forward to the fender gap in the front. The car is on IE3 springs so it has a rear rake. The back gap will probably look fine.
