and here is why EVERYONE needs an alignment after they lower there car. i drove around like this for two years :mcry::mmad: they didnt adjust the rear cuz i was a dummy and forgot to tell them i installed adjustable camber arms, but as you can tell from the picture i have already adjusted them myself to around -.5
the toe in the front was insane!

225/45/17 no rubbing at all, even when it was left at -2.9 camber or when i set it to -.5. still have PLENTY of room. +40 offset

1010tires.com has a tire calculater, it allows you to plug in any tire size and compare them... width height, sidewall height.. ect.. If your ever in the market for new tires and rims this is where you want be..!!!

I rolled my fenders last week. It's easy, just get a heat gun and a hammer. Lol and take your time going left to right
