still have to go through and adjust my coilovers to the height im wanting. im thinking the rear needs a 10-15mm spacer since i had all four fenders rolled almost an inch. i need a rear camber kit if anyone has one for sale.
with this setup it tracks and steers great but one thing happened that im ot sure what could have caused it. i wanted a nice flowing corner or roundabout so when i was exiting h1 onto ft weaver huge sweeping right, my slip light turned on and i lost power but it was only that one time. and when it happened i wasnt anywhere near breaking traction. kinda freaks you out at 60mph in a turn. any ideas?

but anyways, time for pics, ill get more tomorrow after i wash it!

Could be the new tires not broken in yet? I remember having similar problems when I put on new tires.

No I had the guys at jus4kix do the fender rolling and mounting balance, they did a great job. $55 per fender. I was worried at first but they rolled them, took measurements, just to be sure they had them right. My offsets are +22 all around and I was very suprised that even with the 275s up front I have yet to rub.
I don't have the spacers on yet but I'm doing 10mm front and either 15 or 20mm rear.

60 mph on the off ramp, I don't think it's about the tires not being broken in yet. I do think it's the VDC doing what it's supposed to be doing.
