Hey guys, what camber should I run in the rear to tuck the tires away nicely? Wheels are Apollos 19x9.5 +20. Fenders are rolled. I currently run -0.5 camber. Going to lower the car about 3 inches total. I do want the tires to last for a couple of seasons. Same question from the front. 19x8.5 +20 on the front. Tires are 225/35/19 FR and 245/35/19 RR. Thanks for the help

Camber out back will be about -2.5 to -3 with a 245/35 depending on how flat your fenders are rolled. Up front you'll be fine with natural camber. You can either run a 5mm spacer to be +15 up front or run a 235/35 tire (and no spacer).

Lox, you could easily run a 10mm spacer up front to be +10. I am runing 225/40/19s w/ those offsets and natural camber with have no issues at all. Toe in spec.

When you say "natural" camber, are you implying that I don't need front camber arms to adjust the camber at all since it will not be too bad to kill the tires at 3 in drop?

^Kind of. Yes natural camber meaning the camber introduced by a 3" drop. But no to that amount of camber not being too bad to kill the tires. You won't need front upper arms to clear the fender, but if you want to bring it to be more positive then yes you'll need front upper arms.

I Really Dig the blue (teal) color goes well with the white. Go with a kurrokie front and fix the old lip and bumper so in the any event this happens again you have a good back up! CAR IS SICK THO!!

Cliff can't run the KuRookie, at his height it'll touch the ground while parked.

hence why I no longer have a kurookie.
