Seventy, im just curious, and its somewhat obvious, but those rub right? lol or is there like, a paper thin clearance there? and why is that one backwards fix that sh1t yo
Yeah I swap them already haha.. I just notice that after I took the picture. It dont rub actually ... well it rub when I go crazy down the hill hahaha... but other than that it is fine. I still can get little camber I think. Didnt do the alignment yet so we will see.. that just what I like on the look and camber. Still got alot of things to finish up.

Fender work










Modified camber plate rear.

I cant get to the max camber I want on the camber plate because the bolt are blocking it to go all the way. Than I have to take off the metal ring and now I can get them to the max camber.








Not sure what is my current camber cause didnt do alignment yet but I set all 4 plate to full negative and both rear camber bolt to full postive.



Oh the clearance on the strut and the wheel. I was told you need 1/4" of clearance or something like that. This is the front.


Thats about all I can contribute.

The fender work is done by Henry@ Mach 3 up at norcal. He happened to come down so he came over and do mine. totally pro at this. He didnt even need to see my wheels on and he got it right. So if you looking for fender work u got to find him. I will pm you information if needed.

I might get flame on this. So I got to say this is for LOOKS only first just incase. My ride height is not the best and alot of people will suggest you not to lower that much if you in to autocross, track or even on the street if you want the best handle. Same goes to the camber and maybe even the tires are not best for the street.

Is little different with current setup on the street. I myself dont feel anything wrong with it like some other people said. I feel alot more stable on any condition even bump or uneven street. I been up to the hill 2 days ago and man... was so much fun and so much grip all the way up... I guess you can call it aggressive.

The wheels look nice, however I am not a fan of stretch and poke. I can't imagine handling being and better like that and it looks like you might end up with some tire rub.

I just want to see some data to back up the fact that stretched tires have any benefit.

to an extent they do, assuming your tires are good too.

the drifters who go through tires alot also run crappy tires with really soft sidewalls so they do anything they can to get the sidewall stiff, stretching it is one way.

it really depends on the motorsport of choice and the rules allowed.
