What size are the expressions?
I had 14 inch ones, when I changed to 15 inch cesaros it looked higher if anything so I had to lower it more.

The expressions you have are exactly the same size tyres as mine I had, and the slabs are exactly the same size tyres as my cesaros
I lowered mine more after fitting them, you'll probably need 5mm spacers if you've got front coilovers and don't already have them.

Sorry to jack the thread a bit but it relates sort of..
Would 195/65/15's rub on 60mm drop?
My opinion between the two is slabs done in gloss black

45s are nice on 15s, I'm not sure id want 40s unless it was for 16s like speedlines
