^Your setup would look more aggressive if you were able to roll your fender all the way flat/do a small pull. That way you could go more aggressive and run less camber.

^Not sure how close you are to Danny, but you should see if he can help you with your pull.

^Veddy nice. I'm planning a video shoot soon myself. Static shots are great but to get the true effect and "presence" of the car I think a video does the trick.

adon, as said you should run small tires front/rear. a 285/30 out back is pretty damn beefy. a 265/30 would stretch well on that rear. Still, more camber would help. -5* is not that bad.....compared to Levon

Although you canceling the dinner with her shows that..
