how low do you think you went on the HKS's? looks as though you may run into a similar issue I had with my JIC's, I went lower than an adjustable camber/toe arm could correct in the rear and had to end up get new toe bolts; labor intensive task, but I have perfect camber with a 3" plus drop.
those wheels are pretty sweet, my 2nd set of dpe's will be a step lipped five spoke, in 20s though

definitely hot to look at, but what are you driving impressions? that much negative camber has got to throw the suspension geometry out of whack... any plans for camber corrections?

If you have time, take some up close (ugly) pictures with a flash to show where your tire sits in the fender.. I'd love to find somebody that has gone lower than I have. I don't scrape or rub and I am in the green all around.

Well, the offsets are posted there anymore - which leads me to believe that he had them wrong (because they were both something like +12) - there is a 350Z who had a 9.5" +12 LE37T in the rear and had MAJOR rubbing issues lowered on Tein Basics, so imagine what an 11" +12 would be like!
I would like to know the EXACT offsets as well - I really don't think there's a need to conceal them if you know them... I think you have influenced a lot of people into running an 11" rear, so they need to know the right offsets to make it work...
