Ill have pics up as soon as I can.

Theyre 15X8, ET 0 with a 8mm spacer in the rear bringing it out to ET-8. My fenders have a love/ hate relationship with them.

I hope to have some up soon. It still looks kinda funny but I need to play with the camber. Shims and bolts and she'll be happy. Need to pull those fenders a bit too

I dont get the reason to hype everything up with nothing to show for it for hours or even days. What is the point?

Chamber? Really what do you mean?

As for the picture, OH MY GOD!!!! Take turns at 10000mph!!!!! LOL

Looks really low to the floor. Hmm and if you hit a bump? Looks like 1 inch between the hmm entire wheel and the fenders.

Camber is the angle of the wheels, Im looking for negative camber:

It makes the top of the tire tuck into the fender more, like so:

Its pretty low, less than an inch of wheel gap to the fender. It doesnt rub too bad because the tires are stretched.

Of course my horse, I do every day. I work 40 miles from my house too.

My other car is the "inpractical" one :laugh:. The front lip is about 3/4" from the pavement.

I know, I think I may out some flares on it from my buddy's company... but first Im gonna try the -camber and massaging the metal some more.

Should have the flares next week for a test fit. I think they may be a welcome alternative to massive camber adjustments.
