Theres a reason you should spend less time typing and more time wrenching.

Yea that seems a bit tucked for a 30mm.

That's mine when I had 25mm. But you said your alignment was off, so it should fit better once you get it in.

Saalammed! Nice man
Ya, Im pretty low with 25 on the back. With my -1* of camber on the back, I have a good 5-10mm to go yet. Should be real nice with a camber kit. I have the spc kits front and rear.

that's really 30mm?? My 25mm spacers looked more flush from what I can remember and at times I was running up to ~3 degrees of camber.

I think Im lower then you guys, that might have something to do with it. Before i lower the jack all the way it looks like your guys but when i go lower it just seems to tuck naturally.

It did at the height i had it before, had to raise it about an inch. Only rubbing i get is going over freeway connections. Tire rubbing that damn bumber bracket.

I must've look at your pics 100 times (so clean) before i decided to go with 30s. I was expecting it to look more flush too, lets see how it looks after the camber kits.


I do think that being as low as im has something to do with it.

you are def lower than me. im guessing the best you will get out of a camber kit is -1.5 to -2 deg rear.

it rubs the bumper bracket and not the wheel well shroud?

here is my thread when I installed 35mm in the rear and 25 up front.

I could have ran 30s in the front but I didnt have any...

Haha thanks for the comment. Just thinking about it, it may be my tire size that makes it look more flush too. I had a bit larger rear tires than oem (255 over 245?) I have no idea what oem sizes are anymore but it was up by 10. How far I was dropped then and what camber I had running was the maximum I could with that tire size (fenders rolled) without rubbing.
