it's not really raked, the camber in the rear just combines the side wall with a lil' peak of the tread.

But front and rear are sittin exactly the same on tire now.
Its what you like at the end.
Correct that was what I was going for, tucking the same amount of tire F/R. Since the tire up front is smaller I'm actually lower up front than I am out back. If I went lower in the rear I'd have to make more adjustments/do some more fender work as the lips of the wheels would hit the fenders.

It doesn't look raked in person really, there should be another side profile shot John took looking forward to see if it looks to be sitting the same as in the first one he edited.

So dope Marcus! No adjustments need to be made guys, the picture is throwing off how it really looks. Any lower in the rear and it would be squatting = not a good look!

I guess its preference, I like the raked look, you could go slightly smaller OD on the tire and it would lower the rear a bit and still look good. I hate when the rear looks like its sagging though

I am running a 245 out back. 255 on a 10.5 wouldn't be enough stretch and would be too tall with a 225 for sure.

Thanks Grant! I think the photo is throwing it off too cause it doesn't look like that in person to me. I agree the squatting look is...meh.

Grant worked for like 6 hours dialing this setup in, trust me its money.

I agree. Doesn't it squat a little when rolling anyway? Or am I wrong? So it would rub if it went lower? I have a larger tire out back as well.

Yes it squats when rolling, so when I'm driving it is lower than when its parked.

I already every so slightly graze the lips of the drivers side wheel out back under full compression. It wouldn't rub the tire but rather the lips of the wheels. Nothing a larger fender pull or more camber wouldn't fix, but I like how its sitting right now.
