Do you know your fender to ground measurements? I've got the same tire sizes and almost the same width 19x10 / 19x11 and curious at a good starting point to shoot for when adjusting my coils.

In your KF ad, it also looks like you have room to adjust the camber more positively, or are the pics deceiving? Sometimes the tires are so black you can't see how close they are in pictures.

thanks
Rear camber definitely couldn't get anymore positive, still rubbing on dips at -5.1, front camber is iffy, it's at -3 right now and anymore positive would make the rears look even more ridiculous and cause problems at full lock turning without more of a pull. In those pics the fender measurement is probably somewhere around 25" I think, at one point I was below 24 and then I kinda lost track of where I ended up, I raised it a couple times in small increments and don't even know if I've done so again since then...

Also on the front camber - with the tires that are currently on it (225/40 RE050A) there's more of a gap for some reason than I recall having with the first set (225/35 Hankook V12). I'm dong screwing with it until I get some stockers back on and go back to an OEM or almost OEM alignment spec so it's kind of in limbo at the moment.

Thanks... Yea, pictures can be deceiving. I figure you put 225/40's on the front to get a little more clearance/drivability? That's what I'm tying to achieve as this is my daily... Used to be on 20"

Negative. Got a sweet deal on used tires, lol. They were close enough to spec so threw them on.
