Oh, I was thrown off cause you said 8.5 +35 but his wheels are 8.5 +25.

I had a very mild roll when I had the OEM Rays and never came close to rubbing. The 10mm added more poke than I intended. Once I get the camber adjusted we shall see if I stick with the 10mm. I do love the poke it will give

Thank is not "poke," that is "sticking the **** out"

Oh your wheels won't clear the Alliance BBK. Hopefully a 15 will clear. Even with a 15 I think you'll have to add some camber. When will the BBK be on, can't wait to see!

marcus, how flat were you rolled and how low when you ran 255s? Getting an alignment tues so I have less camber, proper poke, no rub. Plus I know my caster and toe need a huge adjustment.

^I was rolled very flat. Basically as flat as you could go until you started to do a pull.

Pretty much where I am now. But you had 8mm more than currently do, right? Wondering if a 5mm spacer would be better than a 10mm.

^Yeah mine was about 8mm more aggressive than your setup. Tire brand will make some difference, but not that much I don't think. What camber are you at right now? Pics of how its sitting?

As Marcus said, even with a 15mm you'll have to camber. Get the SPL v3's or Cusco and modify them like I did, unless you can find 350 Evo arms.

Where you're at now you would need to dial in another 5-7 degrees of camber to make it clear.

I will get some. Odd thing is, my car now sits LOWER in the rear since the spacer and camber arm install. When from 1 finger gap to almost .5 -.25 finger gap Looks odd. More I think about it, I think the caster may be way off since the wheel is not quite centered in the well. Higher degree of caster would probably result in less verticle ride height.
