^^ nice... did you ever drive around like that? there's no way that the rear doesn't rub with that set up

^^^You're right it does rub in the rear. I got frustratted getting them not to rub with those offset but no luck. So I just sold them and go more stretch next time. I refuse to go any weaker in offset. Once you go low offset, i just can't go back...it would looks soo weak. LOL. My camber were -2.3 in the rear.

yeah, I have more negative camber, and less aggressive offsets than your setup with a similar drop, and I still rub when the road's bumpy. and yeah, once you go aggressive, it's hard to go back

And here are thought my set up was "aggressive", but after seeing some of you I'm pretty mild

I'm running a 255/35/20 up front and a 285/30/20 in the rear. I'll update these after my drop later this week

You're right, it is pretty mild. Throw on some 15mm spacers all around, and that should help.

The whole point of this thread is no stretched tires.

Now now shane im not saying the stretch looks bad, I just think that if your going aggresive having those tiny tires dont look the part. Besides I like to gain traction not loose it with a ton of neg camber and barly any tire to sit on.

Sounds like a mod has been cleaning up this thread? I don't know which one, but keep it up! Posts with pics/specs of weak setups or ones that don't fit the criteria of this thread should be sent to swim with the fishes!
