how much of a strech? I am 8.5 +20 on 225/40. If on coils I would need probably another 5-10mm to be flush. Probably due to sidewall height.

i had a 8.5 before my set up and to be hella flush or even have a poke with that you will need to be +5 or less ... Marcus is 8.5+0 225/35 and has a tiny tiny poke .. thats the main reason i went with 9.5 fronts so i can make it go out ... i for now im not really going to touch the off-sets but i will go more aggressive sooner or later ... i want to get better coils :-)

Haha, yeah Dave. I'll know my exact camber settings this Saturday when I get an alignment (finally!). I bet I'm 3.X up front and 4ish out back.

-------------------

Looks sick so far Chris, nice work!

I know you plan on going lower up front, I also think you should consider going lower out back. Try and tuck tire, it will look much better IMO. You should aim for your rears to be around 24.5 and your fronts to be at 24.25. Looks like the front needs a larger spacer to me. If you go lower up front you will likely lose your poke.

Nice man...but more low.... like in this pic:



That way it doesn't give the appearance of being tucked, but your wheels will tuck when compressed and won't get damaged
