Rear camber is too much for me. At a glance it looks wicked, but it's obvious camber was sacrificed to make it fit. Rim would hold bigger rubber too - wouldn't your rubber fit on 10.5?

coulda gone with same lip and 30mm safer fitment, meaning 2.5* less camber and same fitment against fender.. chose not to because i like the way it is like this, i prefer camber for driving. also on the rubber.. try a 305 on 10.5 ad a 305 on 12 and actually drive the car spirited, you'll see when u "buldge" a tire on a wheel theirs a lot more play in the tire.. it feels like you have brand new 10/32nds tread tires all the time because the flex in the sidewall. versus a semi pulled tire has no flex in the sidewall and responds the same regardless of the extremity of the turn your in.

So that eastwood roller makes the fender not bow out? Hmm...I hate that look too.

when done properly... most people just push out to roll it up.. which bows fender..

you put the roller so the wheel is basically flat because the fender at first isnt parallel to the ground but pointing towards the wheel slightly..

first bend the fender lip parallel to ground.. then keep pushing it up.. softening the edge.. then once the edge becomes more pliable from the moving it up a little u bend it up real quick w/ a lot of heat so it bends perfectly flat.. when your done the inside lil lip piece will have curled itself into a perfect U shape and flat.. which is how i fit what i fit and now have it bowed out

Sometimes more is not better. But, kudos for actually attempting something that no one has ever done on a G35.

I love the drop. Makes the car look so aggressive. Wish I could drop my car like that. Then again If i did, I wouldn't be able to go much places in Southern California. But nice ride there.

Move to FL....then we can trade cars, so that green car of yours won't go to waste and you can use mine for the new project.
