Right, as it should be. But I said "lifted look" because when you put larger wheels and tires and the correct size tires on a car, you end up more wheelgap than tire sidewall thickness, it's an optical illusion that makes it look like you have more wheel gap.
I don't blame you for wanting to ditch the LX hubcaps, mine is an LX as well, but a drop will make it look really nice...not to mention better handling.
